State tax filing

Contributions to a 529 are after-tax and not federally tax deductible. You report your contribution on your state return. 

 

To report your contribution:

  1. Open NY return.
  2. Continue to the screen Changes to Federal Income.
  3. In the Education Adjustment section, clock start next to NY 529 College Savings Account Activity. 

 

If you're a New York State taxpayer and an account owner, you may be able to deduct up to $5,000 ($10,000 if you're married filing jointly) of your Direct Plan contributions
