Depending on your total income you may not qualify for the Traditional IRA deduction.
However, the nice thing about the TurboTax program is you can go to the IRA contribution area and enter a Traditional IRA contribution and find out. Then if you don't just go back and remove the entry. This way you know for sure.
If you do an IRA for 2016, make sure it is designated for 2016 tax year and put in by April 18, 2017.
