> I think you’re in the phase out range for the credit

No, its uop north of $400k.

The temporary expanded credit in 2021 was lower ($150k AGI if I remember right)

> Assuming one of our employers offers it, we should max out an FSA for day care, right?

Yes.

> Can we also claim any of the dependent care credit (e.g., $1000 to max out the $6000 total).

If you have two or more kids, yes. If you only have one kid, the dependant care credit is only $3k, so nothing extra to claim there
