Question

Where can I enter Georgia 529 contributions. The idiot who wrote the help section says it will ask me for the contributions but it doesn't.

    I'm not specifically familiar with your state software. The following is a "generic" answer.

     There is no federal deduction for making a contribution to a 529 plan. Some states allow a deduction on the state return. If your state is one, it will come up in the state interview; usually in the "Here's how (your state) handles income differently" section.

     

    For a state list of eligible plans, see: https://www.savingforcollege.com/article/how-much-is-your-state-s-529-plan-tax-deduction-really-worth

    In the Income section of the Georgia state program, under Education, on Path2College Savings Plan Contributions , click on the start button.
