Massachusetts Deduction for 529 Contributions

Massachusetts allows a deduction for 529 contributions to Massachusetts plans on State Income Taxes, but TurboTax does not ask me about this nor do I see where I can enter it on the Tax Forms.   Help, please!

As you go through the Massachusetts tax return, there will be a screen titled 'Education Expenses' with a list of four items with check-boxes beside them. 

 

Check the box beside 'Contributed to a college savings plan established by Massachusetts' and then click Continue

 

The next screen will ask for more information.
