PrintForm 2441, Child and Dependent Care Expenses
To claim the credit for child and dependent care expenses, you need to fill out Parts I and II of IRS Form 2441, Child and Dependent Care Expenses, if you're filing IRS Form 1040.
This form requires you to provide identification information for both the care provider(s) and the qualifying children or disabled persons. The form helps you to compute your credit by comparing your allowable expenses with your wages and other earnings (and those of your spouse, if married). Your credit amount as shown on Line 13 of the 2441 is carried to Line 47 of your Form 1040, where it will be directly subtracted from the taxes you owe.
