It sounds like you purchased the CD/download for a federal return in a version that did not include state software. Some retailers sell Deluxe with and without the state program---you have to pay attention to what you are buying. There are some states without a state income tax so there are folks who purchase the software for federal only. If you purchased it without a state program, it is an extra $45 to download the software for the state, and there is always an extra fee to e-file the state. You can avoid that state e-file fee if you print and mail the state instead.
