Overcontribution to DCFSA2024

My husband and I each contributed 5000 to separate dependent care FSAs, so that made for a $5000 overcontribution since it's $5000/family. Form 2441, line 26 says the taxable benefit, however, is $10,000. Shouldn't it be $5000 on line 26?

    Did you enter your dependent care expenses? You need to confirm this money was used for daycare so you still have to enter the care providers information and amounts.
