No, if your employer OFFERS a retirement plan the box must be checked. Your tax deductibility of the traditional IRA may be limited if your employer offers a retirement plan.

They offer a 401k i dont participate. So how would you be able to contribute to a IRA that is not provided by your employer and not pay taxes on your contributions. Is there a different box on your w2 to designate that?
