529 Plan Amended Returns

I neglected to include my 529 contributions on my state tax returns for the last 10 years. Can I file amended returns and or deduct the contributions on future returns? Thank you.

You cannot deduct the contributions on future returns. You can amend the returns to add the contribution back for the number of years allowed under your state's law, which for most states is three years from the date the return is filed - however, this can vary depending on the state, but I'm not sure in which state you file your return.
