I agree with SJR. One $5,000 limit for MFJ. This landed in "Industry Discussions" so if you let folks know what software you're using (ProSeries / Lacerte / PTO) we might be able to point you to some data entry issues.
If you look at the 2441 you have to approach this from both directions. 1) Here's who got paid and how much. 2) Here's how much it costs to care for these dependents. So you'll need to give the software the breakdown of both sections.
I would expect $5,000 added to taxable wages with a "DCB" notation.
