Can you Amend a federal return and later on amend NYS if needed?

I know an original NYS return likes to be filed WITH a federal return.  My question is can you file an Amended Federal first ( since NYS hasn't processed/comleted the return process) and Amend NYS seperately?  Or do I have to wait weeks until NYS completes the process.    I believe NYS will find the error and correct it with out an amendment since the error is  based on the NYS Unemployment figure the client read off their phone...didn't have a printer ( read me 2021 when it was to be 2022)

Yes, NY is an independent filing state but you can also fire the piggyback state amendments separately

If at first you don’t succeed…..find a workaround
