Filing Indiana State tax return. TurboTax has a place for Indiana College Choice 529, I made my gift through U Gift 529, where do I enter this for tax credit?

In the Indiana section

• Go to Take a look at Indiana credits and taxes
• Find Education
• Start Indiana College Choice 520 Plan
• Enter your Account number and contribution amount

Indiana's CollegeChoice 529 Education Savings Plan is a tax-advantaged savings plan designed to set aside funds for future higher education expenses.

I'm still a bit confused how to enter these deductions as the uGift529 service provides codes not account numbers, and that's a key point of their system.  How do I enter my deductions within the TT software as I'm getting validation errors on the Account number field?

Regex for the uGift529 student identifiers which are a 6 character alpha-numeric code in 2 blocks of 3 chars:  `/[A-Z0-9]{3}-[A-Z0-9]{3}/`

Indiana IRS explicitly says contributions can be made to a child's plan and be eligible to receive the credit.

Here's what you do

On the next screen, see this

Simply put in 61, 62 etc. followed by any string of digits that is either 10,11 or 16 digits long.

That should get it to work. It worked on my end.
