Dependent Care Benefits on W-2
Why is Turbo Tax giving a credit on Form 2441 when there is an entry in Box 10 for dependent care benefits? If you don't enter how much you paid for each dependent, the return shows an error. I was able to bypass this since i paid more in dependent care than the $5,000 on my w-2 by just entering the amount over the $5,000 actually paid for care. However, if i had only paid $5,000 and put $2,500 as the amount paid for each dependent, it would take a credit for the whole $5,000.
Is this a software error?
