Hello @Danarand1 !
Thanks for the question.
The answer is yes AND possibly no.
You are definitely allowed to contribute the $6,000 into a traditional IRA (or Roth IRA, if you fall within the income limits), but because one of your employers in 2021 did have a retirement plan available for you, you may not be able to take the deduction, or the full deduction. Here is an IRS link that explains the income limits for claiming a deduction on your IRA contributions for 2021 when you were covered by a retirement plan at work. *Note, there are slightly different rules for each spouse if you are married and one spouse is covered, but the other isn't.
Hopefully that answers your question and gives you some of the tools you need to make your retirement saving choices!
