Deductions & credits

You need to file an amended return for 2018 to take a deduction for the amount contributed.

If you cannot deduct the contribution in 2018 a form 8606 is generated as part of your tax return.  This information then becomes a part of your 2019 return to show that you did not receive a deduction for the contribution to your IRA account.
