If I participate in the Dependent Care FSA, will I still be able to claim the household and dependent care credit on my federal income tax return?
You may not claim any other tax benefit for the tax-free amounts received by you under the dependent care FSA, although the balance of your eligible employment-related expenses may be eligible for the dependent care credit. Please consult your tax advisor to determine whether the tax credit may be more favorable to you than participating in the dependent care FSA.
