Problem:  TP earned income (wages) are split 50/50 for the IRA contribution deduction calculation. Everything else is good.

I want the Spouse Traditional IRA contribution to be deducted on the MFS_MFJ worksheet but it isn't.  

This is CALIF but I think all boxes are checked to split all income and deductions according to the TP/S/Joint boxes on the input forms.  his wages are marked for TP and Spouse wages are marked for Spouse and so on. And Form 3 box to Apply community property rules is 1.
