As you go through your Nebraska return, there will be a question on a screen titled Nebraska College Savings Plan.  Answer Yes to this question and enter your information.

If you missed seeing that question the first time through your state return, click Update beside the Adjustments section to go through the screens until you find the question about the college savings plan.

I have three grandchildren. I setup and contributed to each of their 529 accounts, listing me as the owner. how do I claim all three contributions?

Unlike an IRA, contributions to a 529 plan are not deductible and therefore do not have to be reported on federal income tax returns. What's more, the investment earnings in your account are not reportable until the year they are withdrawn. 529 plans save taxpayers billions of dollars on their income taxes.
