Schedule K-1: Beneficiary's Income, Deductions, Credits
It shows the gross amount of earnings and income earned by the partnership at a specified time. Form K-1 is issued to the shareholder (the person who owns interests in the partnership) each year, but may also be requested by a limited partner in a corporation or by an executor of an estate of a deceased person. However, only shareholder-required reports can be filed with Form 8949. Other reports (e.g., partner reports) may be filed only with Form 8949-A and must be received by January 31st of the following year. Schedule K-1 is used as the basis for calculating net self-employment income, and therefore reporting and filing an EIN is important for any investor who is engaged in the business operation (even if the investor works in a fiduciary capacity). For details on all types of Schedule K-1 reporting and paying for the report, see Publication 521, Guide to Tax-Filing Requirements. Additional Resources: IRS Pub. 521: Tax Guide for Small Business.
