Numbers for dependent care are not adding up
My husband has 2 W2s. Same company, but they just switched him from head office to the local branch. He has a child care FSA. Box 10 on one is $1728, the other is $3264. So that adds up to $4992.
But TT says "you have $4228 of employer-provided care benefits" So why is that different?
THEN, when I enter the expenses, which were $5980, when it goes back to the summary screen it says total care expenses is $2716 and that they are adding $1728 of the dependent care benefit to this year's income.
What is going on? None of these numbers are making sense. Also, why should any of the benefit be added back to taxable income when we used all of it for child care??
