Hi there, @ESPC3. I'd be glad to help. 

If you use QuickBooks Online (QBO) Payroll Core, Premium, or Elite, rest assured your state W-2s are automatically e-filed with your Federal W-2s. However, the copies you can view and print from the Payroll filings are Copies A and D for the employer and copies B, C, and 2 for the employees. You can follow these steps to view these copies:

1. Select Taxes, then Payroll tax.
2. Select Filings. 
3. Select Resources, then W-2s. 
4. Review the list of employees whose W-2 you want to view.
5.  Select View or Manage on the copy you need:
6. Select View and print. 

Feel free to check out this link to review other helpful resources in QBO Payroll: Self-help articles.

We'll be on the lookout for your reply if you have further details or concerns about generating Copy 1 of your W-2 for state filing. We're committed to offering ongoing support. Take care.
