As long as your elective deferrals to the SIMPLE IRA do not reduce the amount in box 1 of your W-2 to less then $5,500 and your modified AGI for the purpose of a Roth IRA contribution does not exceed the threshold for Roth IRA contribution eligibility, you can contribute $5,500 to a Roth IRA.

Perfect.  Thanks, I just needed the reassurance that I could do both--assuming I made
< $189,000, was married filing jointly) and I had at least $5,500 in box 1 of my W2 form.
