If I am covered by a work retirement plan for 3 months, can I deduct an IRA contribution if I am over the income limit?

While using TurboTax, I was allowed to include deductible IRA contributions when I stated I was not covered by a work retirement plan (I was only covered for 3 months).  My refund reflected the deduction until I transmitted, at which point my refund reduced.  Wondering what happened and if I need to amend.  If I don't get the deduction, I may change my mind on contributing to the IRA.
