Partner notification re K-3

[gabletax]

I'm looking for the box to click to add the required notification to all the K-1's stating that a K-3 will not be provided unless requested. Ready to print the first 1065 for the year and remembered this requirement. But it seems nowhere to be found.

Just a place to compose and enter my own verbiage that would appear on all the K-1's would be better than nothing. Am I missing something or do I need to patient and see if this functionality shows up soon?

I finished up a couple of small partnerships with 2 partners each today.  I just ended up typing that in the supplemental information section of the K-1 worksheet below line 23.  Then I cut and pasted into the other partner's K-1.  Not the greatest solution but it works if you only have a couple of partners.

If you type your statement on line 20c page 4 of the Form 1065 (the Other Information Section) it will transfer automatically to all Partner K-1s. No cut and paste is needed.

Perfect - thanks!

When you enter this on Line 20, are you making a multi-line entry due to the short length of the line

and then on each client having to re-create the stmt in multi line format?

[msmith7305]

No, I type it all continuously and then it shows up in just one box.

Whichever way you do it, it will auto flow to each K-1.

Make sure you type your statement on line 20c page 4 of the Form 1065 (the Other Information Section) so it will transfer automatically to all Partner K-1s. No cut and paste is needed.

Would you mind sharing the statement you used?

[msmith7305]

This is what I use.

THIS NOTIFICATION IS TO ADVISE YOU THAT, AS REQUIRED BY IRS INSTRUCTIONS, AS A MEMBER OF (COMPANY NAME) THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A SCHEDULE K-3 FOR 2022 UNLESS YOU SPECIFICALLY REQUEST THIS SCHEDULE.

I pretty much use the last half of that ---------------- trying to save on toner 😁

Thank you

[slseaman]

Thanks, I was thinking along those lines.

I tried a couple of longer abbreviated versions and finally settled on this: SCH K-3 FURNISHED ON REQUEST

[gabletax]

I don't know when they did it, but today when I opened ProSeries to do another partnership, there is our checkbox, sitting there just as nice as can be. It's on the Information worksheet in the Partner Printing Options, last item.

Thank you, Intuit! Your thoughtfulness is appreciated!

It's nice that they got that added ----------- after the due date for those returns 😬

[gabletax]

Oops, not so fast! Now that I have K-1s printed out, I see it doesn't really work so slick after all. If you elect out of consolidated audit procedures, on the K-1 it prints the first line of the K-3 disclaimer in place of the last line of the consolidated audit disclaimer. The result is a nonsensical piece of text. Can someone tag Intuit on this? Maybe get it fixed by next year?

 

[IRonMaN]

Give them an A for effort.  But as a client used to say, never confuse effort with results.😉

[slseaman]

Anybody else think that the checkbox on the information worksheet for K-3 should NOT default to NO, but instead should throw an error, forcing you to answer the question.  Else default to yes!

[gabletax]

Soooo . . . this glitch has not been fixed in the 2023 software.
