The refunds are processed separately by different agencies and the timing is independent of each other. The IRS processes federal refunds and your state Department of Revenue processes the state tax return refunds.
It is not unusual that one arrives before the other. State refund process timing varies from state to state. To track your state tax return refund please see this TurboTax FAQ: https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/refund-status/help/how-do-i-track-my-state-refund/00/25571.
