You need to enter a child that qualifies for the Child and Dependent Care Credit and the Daycare/childcare provider in that section of TurboTax. Don't look at the refund or amount due until you enter all your information in TurboTax. The refund/amount due is constantly changing.
If you do not have a qualifying child or your child did not go to Daycare, but you had pre-tax monies allocated for Daycare on your W-2, the $5,000 is now being taxed.
The Child and Dependent Care Credit can reduce your tax bill if you paid for a dependent's care so that you could work or look for work.
