Purpose of Schedule K-1
The partnership uses Schedule K-1 to report your share of the partnership's income, deductions, credits, etc. Keep it for your records. Do not file it with your tax return unless you are specifically required to do so. (See the instructions for Code O. Backup withholding, later.) The partnership files a copy of Schedule K-1 (Form 1065) with the IRS.
For your protection, Schedule K-1 may show only the last four digits of your identifying number (social security number (SSN), etc.). However, the partnership has reported your complete identifying number to the IRS.
Although the partnership generally isn't subject to income tax, you may be liable for tax on your share of the partnership income, whether or not distributed. Include your share on your tax return if a return is required. Use these instructions to help you report the items shown on Schedule K-1 on your tax return.
The amount of loss and deduction you may claim on your tax return may be less than the amount reported on Schedule K-1. It is the partner's responsibility to consider and apply any applicable limitations. See Limitations on Losses, Deductions, and Credits, later, for more information.

Schedule K-1 is an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tax form issued annually for an investment in a partnership. The purpose of the Schedule K-1 is to report each partner's share of the partnership's earnings, losses, deductions, and credits. Schedule K-1 serves a similar purpose as Form 1099.

Who provides a k1 tax form?
K-1s are provided to the IRS with the partnership's tax return and also to each partner so that they can add the information to their own tax returns. For example, if a business earns $100,000 of taxable income and has four equal partners, each partner should receive a K-1 with $25,000 of income on it
March 15
Schedule K-1s are due to be prepared and sent out by March 15 of each year. Unfortunately, they have a reputation for being late. And with the tax-filing deadline just a month later, there's a real chance for headaches
Basis Limitations
Generally, you may not claim your share of a partnership loss (including a capital loss) to the extent that it is greater than the adjusted basis of your partnership interest at the end of the partnership's tax year. Any losses and deductions not allowed this year because of the basis limit can be carried forward indefinitely and deducted in a later year subject to the basis limit for that year.
The partnership isn't responsible for keeping the information needed to figure the basis of your partnership interest. Although the partnership does provide an analysis of the changes to your capital account in item L of Schedule K-1, that information is based on the partnership's books and records and cannot be used to figure your basis.
You can figure the adjusted basis of your partnership interest by adding items that increase your basis and then subtracting items that decrease your basis.
Use the Worksheet for Adjusting the Basis of a Partner’s Interest in the Partnership to figure the basis of your interest in the partnership.
