By Wife and I still live together. However, we are filing Married Separately. My wife is claiming our child as she made less money than I did last year. How does she claim the Child Care expenses? We both contributed $1,482 towards child care expenses last year.
No.
Topic Number 602 - Child and Dependent Care CreditYou may be able to claim the child and dependent care credit if you paid expenses for the care of a qualifying individual to enable you (and your spouse, if filing a joint return) to work or actively look for work. You may not take this credit if your filing status is married filing separately. The amount of the credit is a percentage of the amount of work-related expenses you paid to a care provider for the care of a qualifying individual. The percentage depends on your adjusted gross income.
