Why does Turbo Tax keep saying I owe state taxes when I know Hawaii does NOT tax Social Security and retirement income?

Hawaii does not tax Social Security benefits, but it does tax some kinds of retirement income such as 401k and IRA distributions, so it is possible that you owe tax on some retirement income to the state.   You do not mention what kind of retirement income you entered.
