My dependent care credit max should be $6000 w/ my 2 children, but says I don't apply b/c my employer took out $2964. Got last year and my income was $100k higher then.

It appears TurboTax is incorrectly thinking I qualify for only 1 child at $3000 despite 2 qualifying children <10 years old.

If you had a FSA for childcare with the employer, that was untaxed money.   You cannot double dip and get that plus the full $6000 childcare credit on your tax return.
