Here’s a summary of the main problem and solutions discussed in the conversation:

- Solution: Fidelity representative explains that the General Partner of a partnership controls the mailing schedule of K-1 forms, which are required to be sent by March 15, or September 15 if an extension is granted.
- Additional Advice: The representative suggests reaching out to a qualified tax professional for assistance with tax filing and specific tax situations.

Does fidelity send out K-1 forms from holdings the previous year. Or is it up to the individual to seek them out?

Great question, @Observed
The General Partner of a partnership controls the mailing schedule of Form K-1s. As a quick reminder, schedule K-1 is an IRS tax form issued annually for an investment in a partnership. The purpose of the Form is to report each partner’s share of the partnership’s earnings, losses, deductions, and credits. The IRS requires partnerships to mail K-1s by March 15 or by September 15, if an extension is granted.
If you need help filing your taxes or have further questions regarding your specific tax situation, please reach out to a qualified tax professional. 🟢
