Being rejected some things on your return don't match what the IRS has in their database. Here's how you can fix it.
Look for an ACTION NEEDED! email from turbotax@intuit.com. It will give you a brief explanation of your reject and how to update it.
Didn't get an email? Open your return to get the rejection reason and proceed to step 2.
Here are links to solutions for the 10 most "popular" IRS rejections:
Step 3: Open and fix your return
Sign in to your account and select the Fix my return button. Follow any “fix it” instructions to update the information causing the rejection.
Note: Not all rejections will have explicit guides to fix the information. You’ll need to navigate to the program area to address the cause of the rejection, then proceed to the final step.
Time-saving Tip: If what you originally entered is correct, you won't be able to e-file. There's probably a data mismatch at the government, a dependent that's already been claimed, or some other situation beyond your control that prevents your return from being e-filed. In these cases, go ahead and file a paper return, rather than wasting your time trying to "fix" something you can't fix.
After completing the previous 3 steps, you're ready to re-file.
If you were guided through fixing your reject, select the option to refile when you’ve finished.
If you had to navigate to the area in the program yourself, when you’ve finished, select File in the left-hand menu (mobile devices: go to the upper-left corner to open the side menu, then select File). Follow the onscreen instructions to either e-file your return or file by mail.
Note: If you get the same rejection a second time (or third, or fourth, or fifth...) and you see no mistakes on your return, select the File by mail option to paper-file your return. Sometimes, returns keep getting rejected even though there's nothing wrong with them (data mismatches, dependents already claimed, and so forth).
In these cases, we recommend paper-filing by mail rather than wasting additional time trying to "fix" something that is beyond your control

How do I fix a rejected return? - TurboTax
From the screenshot you provided, your refund wasn't rejected but the Ohio state return didn't go through because it is still waiting to find out if the IRS has accepted your return.
We advise you to wait until you receive an email confirmation from us stating that the IRS accepted your return, and then you should re-file your state return. The links "let's fix my return" in your screenshot will guide you through the steps.
