Thanks. I was able to eventually figure it out.
on the Virginia form, all though the questions is “total paid for child and dependent care” I really needed to cap it at the max allowed by the state (in my case $6000 - FSA contribution. Unfortunately the software doesn’t catch that you entered higher than the state max until the review and the review itself makes no mention of this, only that it can’t be higher than federal (which is misleading)
thanks for your quick reply. Hopefully this thread can help make the software better and maybe even help someone else who hits the same issue
