I have clients that have one child in daycare. Wife works and had $5000 dependent care from her pay. Husband is disabled. I filled out the disabled portion of the form 2441 . The IRS allows $250 per month for the time he is disabled. He was the entire year . 12months or $3000. The software is still taxing the client on the full $5000 dependent care as income instead the difference of $2000.
What am I doing wrong?

I would start with the basics. You need the care providers in Part I. You also need the amounts per child in Part II (which might be on the Fed Info Wks? I switched from PS a while ago so can't check).
In Part II (page 2), look at Lines 17-19 and see where the limitation is coming from. Maybe your TP/SP disability is flipped?
Good luck, post back if you find the solution.

I called ProSeries support. It is their problem. The form is not looking at the worksheet for disabled. It is only looking for w2s not the exceptions. I have to over ride to the earned income sheet. Then line 19 populates like it is suppose to. This is my third calculation error I have found this year in the software. The other one is in individual tax form on form 4797 line 10 column g does not subtract. The first is on business forms.
