Is the line 7 amount higher?  Are there any letters to the left of the amount on line 7?

[Nishi2008]

Yes, DCB on the left of the amount on line 7, what does it mean?

[Anita01]

The code of DCB stands for Dependent Care benefits, meaning that some part of the amount in Box 10 on your W-2 became taxable.  That can be caused because you were not the custodial parent and therefore could not claim a Child Care credit or because you indicated some part of the amount was not used for Qualifying expenses.
