Spouse's Traditional IRAs

Turbotax Question : Did Spouse make any nondeductible IRA contributions to your traditional IRA from 2024 or prior years?

The wording for this question in Turbotax is a little confusing. Is this question pertaining to Spouse's contribution to Tax Payers IRA or their own IRA? Spouse had their own separate IRA and made contributions in 2024 and prior years.

Look at the title of the screen to be sure which IRA is being discussed, the taxpayer's or the spouse's.  In general, the question wants to know if there were any non-deductible IRA contributions made to the IRA, regardless of who actually made the contribution.  

The wording is confusing the way it is written.  However, there is only one question about the non-deductible contributions to each person's IRA, so be sure to enter any contributions made by either of you.
