With TaxPrep, we e-filed the tax return, mailed in the election with a cover letter, and there was a field to mark on the EFILE data screen to indicate that an election was separately mailed.  In Profile, I cannot locate a similar field, but I would do it the same way - e-file and mail the election in separately.
