    To claim the CHET (Connecticut Higher Education Trust) income tax deduction on your Connecticut state taxes, follow these steps:

    1. Open your CT state return and continue until you get to the screen Here's the income that Connecticut handles differently
    2. Scroll down to Education
    3. Select CHET Contributions

    CHET is a state-sponsored, tax-advantaged 529 college savings plan that's helping families and individuals plan for the cost of higher education. Connecticut families can take an income tax deduction (up to $5,000 for single filers, $10,000 for joint filers) on contributions to CHET accounts
