W2 shows Dependent care benefits, but not claimed even though we had expenses

Hi, 

My spouses company had some split year policy which she was unaware of. 

So, we did contribute to child care FSA but she couldnt claim the money as the benefits manager said they got expired because of "split year policy".  We did have real daycare expenses, but couldnt claim since we were late.

I understand that we lost our unclaimed money

Now that amount shows  up on our W2  in box 10 as around 2.2K, will this restrict our claimable child care credit by 2.2K in form 2441 ?
