Is that $19K in Box 10?
Yes. It’s in box 10.
thats way too much for box 10, and then they got free childcare at the job?
Is that the value of the childcare they received or something like that?
As Lisa said, that's too much for Box 10. The W-2 is wrong.
Theoretically, the $19,000 could be taxable wages in Box 1.
Update: The $19000 is included in Wages. Client has 3 young children that receive "free" daycare. However, it's taxable income. That said. Can I fill out a Form 2441 reflecting this $19000.
( I understand it's way over the limit.) Thank you.
Yes.
