Reported $5K in Dep. Care FSA via my job for single child, but TurboTax still says I'm eligible for the Dependent Care Tax Credit. Is this an error? If so, how can I fix?

posted

Generally, you cannot claim the FSA and the dependent care tax credit for the same expenses. However, if your expenses exceed $5,000, then you may be entitled to claim both.

How do I amend my return to add a dependent? Turbotax will not allow me to add a dependent. When I click on "Revisit" it just says a have no dependents.
