The $40 processing fee is for the bank services used if you elect to pay the TurboTax software fees out of your refund. You can avoid this fee by paying with a debit or credit card.
There has always been a separate fee for state. And always been the Extra $40 Refund Processing Service charge (45 in California) to have the fees deducted from a federal refund. Or you can pay upfront with a credit card to avoid the extra charge. And then the refund will come directly to you without going through the 3rd party bank to take the fees out.
