I plan on using the Dependent Reimbursement Account (DRA going forward) for Day care for my one year old. The max I can put in the account in mu state is $5,000.00 and his tuition is $600.00 a month. Should I set aside the pre tax $5,000.00 or claim the child tax credit at the end of the year? This is tearring me up because I know I have to earn about $825.00 to earn $600.00 after tax.
In addition I am not married but do live with the childs mother. If I do the DRA, can she claim him and get the child tax credit?
I live in North Carolina.
