If LLC Partnership formed in 2016, 10K expenses in 2016, DOORS OPEN in 3/2017. Should I file my LLC Business for 2016 and list Start-up costs?

[raperr4]

I have a LLC Partnership formed in 2016, expenses in 2016 are 12K, leases in 2016; however, DOORS OPEN in March 2017. I believed that I must file my LLC Business for 2016, list Start-up costs, and maybe amort. some costs. Correct? I am concerned that I need to show 2016 expenses rather than wait til 2017 and have expenses all way back to 2016
