	Question: Is it possible (this year) to claim an IRA deduction
when filing 1040A?  Our IRA account says that it is, but the tax form 
says that to claim that exemption one must file the 1040 form (which
I really don't want to do).  This is the only real deduction that my
wife and I have, and I don't want to have to fill out the long form.
Any clarification or advise would be appreciated.  

		Thanks,
