NY 529 contributions for 2024 under $10K filing Joint

[vitaasso]

Past years contributions to a NY 529 plan under $7,000 filing joint always reduced our NY State tax.  This year however there is no reduction.  I even changed the amount to under $5000 but no reduction to the State Tax. Has something changed?

Thanks very much.
