Deductions & credits

As noted above, in terms of the FSA contribution, the maximum amount is $5,000, while for the credit, the maximum amounts are $3,000 for one child and $6,000 for two or more dependents. Any money spent on dependents over these amounts has no tax benefit.

 

"But he can use the remaining amount after the FSA is applied." - this is true in the limited case that DMarkM1 gave, otherwise no.
