State tax return question

I entered most of my info on turbo tax, but had not entered social security numbers for my kids, so I was not receiving the child tax credit. As I enter the social security numbers and get the tax credit, I notice my state return decreasing. I found this odd, any ideas?

Maybe its considered income so it decreases the state return. I remember my state return decreasing when I added the educational credit years ago.

Turbo Tax can do some sketch things when it comes to state taxes. Not that I would know anything about it of course.

Is this LA? You get a deduction on your LA return for federal income tax. As your federal income tax goes down due to credits, that deduction on your state return goes down, meaning your state taxable income goes up.
