It may be that New Hampshire was not ready when you filed your federal return. Early in the tax season, the IRS is still finalizing some of their forms and because states depend on information in the federal return, they often have a delay in some forms at the beginning of the tax season.  After they finalize, of course, TurboTax needs to integrate the changes. You can reopen the state portion of the return make sure it is ready to file.

 

Here is a TurboTax Help article with directions when you return to file your state return.
