Sorry---you misunderstood. TurboTax never knows anything at all about offsets to your refund for child support or back taxes. The only thing that can be deducted from a federal refund is your TurboTax fees.
If you owe the state you have to pay the state yourself. The state cannot be paid from a federal refund.
You must pay your state tax due using the state’s preferred method of receiving payment. For most states that will be by making a payment to the state’s own tax website, or by mailing a check or money order.
