Deductions & credits
How you enter the amounts depends on how much was spent for each child and whether the children had the same care provider.
For tax year 2023, the maximum amount of care expenses you're allowed to claim is $3,000 for one person, or $6,000 for two or more people. The percentage of your qualified expenses that you can claim ranges from 20% to 35% based on your income.
To add another provider or more expenses for the same child:
- Login to your account.
- Select Federal from the left menu.
- Go to Deductions and Credits.
- Scroll down to Child and Dependent Care Credit and click Update.
- Answer Yes to the question " Do you want to review your Child and Dependent Care Credit information?"
- Continue to the screen Here is what you spent on Care providers.
- Select Add another care Provider
See this TurboTax tips article and this help article for more information about the Child and Dependent Care Credit.
