Question

Form 1065 K3

  1. I received 'K3 Information' from an MLP/PTP with a note saying 'do not file'..

  2. I downloaded the K3 form (20 pages) and instructions (34 pages) from IRS.gov. The information document has section & line notes such that I can complete the IRS form.

  3. However, In TT when I go to 'Forms View' the K3 WS does not seem to match up (at least not in an obvious way). HELP!!

  4. One of the Help Center replies included a link (https://care-cdn.prodsupportsite.a.intuit.com/forms-availability/turbotaxbusiness_fed_windows_partnership.html) to a table of Forms Availability that showed K3 forms are supported in printed form. How do I do this?

  5. IRS says that for electronic filing, the K3 can be attached as a PDF. Can I do that? (Note that item #3 above is needed, first.)

  6. I am sure that we users would appreciate some information about your plans for handling the K3 forms.

    If you have a Form 1065 Schedule K-1 for the MLP/PTP, we recommend working through the K-1 interview in TurboTax to complete Schedule K-3. As you have seen, this is a complicated form and several sub-forms were implemented within TurboTax to assist in completing the entries. For this reason, the interview is both easier and more accurate.

     

    With regard to other versions of Schedule K3: According to the IRS, these are the release dates for these forms, based on type of Business Entity. Even after the IRS form is released, it must be integrated into the software, which can take several days.

     

    Form 1120-S                     Mid-June 2022

    Form 8865                        January 2023

     

    For more info, see this IRS link.

    Thanks. 

    Apparently, at the time I entered the K1 information, the K3 dialog was not there.

    I made a quick pass through it and found some of the items on the information sheet I received did not match--I think I need to complete the IRS K3 Form to complete it.

     

    Two questions:  1) the K3 information shows two countries--how do I enter the second?  2)  Will I need to complete the IRS PDF in order to file?

    Please clarify which version of TurboTax you are using - Online or Desktop?

    Is there any update on @ewoldde's questions?  I have the same problem.

     

    I have a K-3 PDF that the limited partnership provided with their tax package.  If I could upload that via TurboTax, my problem would be solved.

     

    The IRS "Availability Date" of March 20, 2022, for the K-3 form has long passed.

     

    Is there an expected date for an update to TurboTax that will allow attaching a PDF version of the Form 1065 K-3 form?

    This does not seem  to have anything to do with the 1065 K3.
