what is the maximum allowed for dependent care per year?

Posted

What do you mean by "allowed?"

Are you talking about the limits on tax-free benefits under an employer-sponsored dependent care assistance plan (under Section 129 of the Code), or the limits on dependent care expenses available for the federal income tax credit?

The IRS-set maximum for the dependent care component of a cafeteria plan is $5,000.00 per calendar year.

The $5,000 is for married, filing jointly and head of household

$2,500 is the maximum is married, filing jointly

If the spouse is a full time student, then a calculation needs to be done to determine their maximum permited
