STATE TAXES COMPLETED (ALMOST) BUT NOT FILED; TRYING TO ADD 529 CONTRIBUTION. STUCK IN LOOP WHERE IT ONLY TAKES ME BACK TO THE PRIOR SECTION.

I'm having an odd issue.  I have desktop.  My state information was all entered but not filed. I was waiting for a business K1 before filing.  I also found out my husband contributed to the 529 plan, which I hadn't noticed on the tax form, so I need to add that in the state return.  When I click on the State option, it just takes me to the last area that was accessed.  For example, I was looking under credits for the 529 but didn't see anything related to education.  The first time I clicked on it, it asked about IRA deduction being from a deceased person (which I also have), but the field was blank.  I just skipped that because I knew I had already entered all that, and I attempted to find the 529 contribution area.  Does anyone have a recommendation on how I can just start at the beginning of the state return and go step by step again to make sure it's still showing in there, and therefore it should also ask me about the 529 contribution again?  Thanks!

UPDATE:  Looks like I got past it.  I just had to revisit it, and Edit the state, then  [Continue] when it was asking me about things that didn't apply to me instead of replying to it.

Wanted to delete and keep it in the State section, but I don't have an option to delete it.  Any suggestions?

You cannot delete a post. It doesn't matter what section it's in.
