I only amended my federal return, do I need to send the state portion of the documents even though my state return is not amended?

I only changed the federal portion, not the state portion, but it is included in my amended documents, so do I need to send that to the state even though nothing changed or just send the federal portion?

If the change did not affect your state return, you do not need to file the state amendment .

Please note : Amended returns must be printed and mailed, and the Form 1040X which is used to amend your tax return is not scheduled to be available from the IRS until February 11, 2016. While you may have made changes to your tax data, it was not an amendment and was not filed.

After February 11, the link below will include the 2015 tax year instructions for amending your return. You will be able to do it by logging into your TurboTax Online account and clicking Amend/Change Your Return from your Tax Timeline .
