I received Dependent Care Benefit (Box 10 in W2). I don't claim any Child Care Expenses. It's taxable. What should I do to complete the tax return?

You have to prepare Form 2441. The interview should prompt you by asking questions about daycare expenses. You will report that you did not have any. Afterwards, the Box 10 amount should be included as taxable wages on your return.
