How to mark "Federal extension filed." on New Jersey return ( NJ state return )?

I am ready to e-file my federal and state returns except for one issue. The NJ State return does not show a checkmark on "Federal extension filed.". I filed a federal extension in April via 3d party website (not TurboTax). How do I fix this???

 

I just spent an hour on the phone with TurboTax support and that was a huge waste of time with no result. I hope someone can help me figure this out quickly.

It is a shame that something so simple as a single checkmark is impossible to address, and nobody at TurboTax or here can advise how to fix it. After hours and hours of wasted time, redoing the return hoping I missed something, I have to file my NJ return knowing that it is not filed correctly. What a disappointment.

 

If there is a way to fix this, I would still want to know...
