You need to add your dependent on your federal tax return for him or her to appear on your state tax return. You can do this by going back through the Personal Information section in TurboTax where you will see an option to add a dependent.

I added her to my federal and it still didn’t bring her over to my state. I even cleared my federal and did it all again, still wouldn’t work.
