W2 Box 10 Income exclusion for DCB on a MFS Return in Community Property State and living together.

MFS, living together - No Dependent Care Credit allowed, so how do you get the exclusion amount off the wages? New rule says you can still take the exclusion..

Allocate half of the box 10 amount to the spouse.  You may run into a diagnostic that DCB exclusion is not allowed for MFS unless one of the exceptions applies but it is actually a known error that Intuit intends to fix (if not already done).
