I have a client who is MFS and has DCAP. $2500 is shown in Box 10 or her W2. She cannot take the Credit but can take the exclusion on Federal Form 2441. However, what about in NYS? as per the instructions, she should not be able to file NYS Form IT-216. How does she take the exclusion in NY or is it already "baked in" from the Federal?

Just an FYI I filled in info to the IT-216 anyway and it gave a $60 credit even though her status is MFS. Why is that? Am I missing something and just take the credit? TIA
