You have to finish the federal return before you can finish the state returns,So what good is it to have an extension on the federal to May 17, if you do not have an extension for New York State or any other state.  It has been eight days since that act was passed, and New York State is still leaving everyone up in the air as to the extension time for filing  or accepting  the $10,200 unemployment exclusion.  I can get nowhere with New York State. If someone gets information would you please post. Thank you
