Dependent Care FSA

Hi @members

 

While claiming dependent care amount, ($1900), I entered the wrong service date because of which I am not sure, if I will be able to claim the amount.

 

I am about to be filing for taxes so I am not sure how should I treat the amount

1) Should i deduct that 1900 from my income? as I still have not received the amount from my employer? IN this case, I would get some benefit since I will not be paying taxes for it?

Issue is  - if at a later point, after July 15th, If I get the amount then I would be paying less taxes for it?
