State of WI College Savings

[adbauer]

I live in WI and have two Edvest college savings accounts, one for each of my two children, who are the beneficiaries. Tax code states that as a divorced parent, I should be able to deduct $1690, per bene, per year. It appears TurboTax is only giving me one deduction for $1690.

To get the correct deduction in TurboTax, please follow the instructions below:

1. Open your return.
2. Click on State.
3. Edit your Wisconsin return.
4. On the page Here's the income that Wisconsin handles differently, click Revisit next to College Saving accounts
5. Answer Yes on the following page
6. Enter the beneficiary name and ensure that the box next to taxpayer is divorced parent of beneficiary is checked
7. Scroll down and enter the amount under contributions - $1,690
   
8. Hit Continue.
9. On the College Savings Accounts Summary, click Add Another College Savings Account. 
10. Repeat steps 6-8.
11. Click Done.
12. The College Saving Account deduction is $3,380.

I had followed those steps; I deleted and started over and it is working now.
