    The ability to deduct your IRA contribution is based on your Modified AGI, your filing status, and whether you are covered by a retirement plan at work.

     

    Please see this TurboTax article for calculating your MAGI from your AGI.

     

    Your husband is covered by a retirement plan at work. With MAGI at $203,000, he can't contribute to a deductible IRA.

     

    See this IRS document.

     

    You aren't covered and you make a full deduction up to $6,500 (plus a catch-up of $1,000 if aged 50 or over).

     

    See this IRS document.
