How to claim 529 tax credit for Wisconsin in turbotax online. I have not received any payment yet, but eligible for $5000 credit in Wisconsin. I do not see an option.

For a Wisconsin 529 tax contribution in 2024, you can reduce your income by up to $5,000 for a married couple filing jointly.  This is not a credit, but rather a deduction.

 

Here is how you can enter your Wisconsin 529 contributions.

 

  1. Navigate to the Wisconsin section of TurboTax (State Taxes > Your State Returns > Wisconsin)
  2. Continue until you arrive at the page with the heading Here's the income that Wisconsin handles differently
  3. Page down to Education
  4. Select "Start" College Savings Plan Contributions
  5. Answer the questions on the following pages regarding the Wisconsin College Savings Plan Contributions

Here is some more information on deducting 529 contributions: 529 Plans and Taxes: Deductions, Tax-Free Withdrawals & More
