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.

    Per the New York 529 College Savings Program, "If you're a New York State taxpayer and an account owner, you may be able to deduct up to $5,000 ($10,000 if you're married filing jointly) of your Direct Plan contributions when you file your state income taxes."
