2018 Roth IRA penalty amended return

I received an email from Turbo Tax stating I should file an amended return because "Amending return to remove the additional tax incorrectly calculated on 1099-R distribution converted to Roth IRA."  It was stated in the email that I overpaid my taxes, and this amendment would gain me a refund. When I followed the instructions, I ended up with a federal refund of $100, but a Minnesota state BILL for $84! Is this right? Why would federal give a refund, but state require a payment? Plus, it's a lot of hassle for a new $16 refund.

 

Any thoughts?
