That looks right John! You are getting a tax break on the full $10K. You have $5k in wages that were not taxed. And the remaining $5k that you paid out of pocket is eligible for the credit. Your credit for eligible expenses is 50% (that is based on your AGI), so your Child and Dependent Credit is $2500. You will see that on Schedule 3.
