Help filing final K-1 form due to trading UVXY ETF in 2024

Hi,

 

I traded UVXY (proshares ultra vix short term futures ETF) last year which appears to be a publicly traded partnership (PTP). I didn't even know this was going to be this complicated when it comes to filing tax.

 

I filed my tax earlier this year and then schedule K-1 and K-3 (form 1065) was sent to me afterward. I am amending my tax to include this schedule. I had done some research around here and had been using this as a guide https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/help-filling-out-sale-information-for-final-k-1/0... with some differences. Mine doesn't appear to be as complex since I traded Proshares Short Term Futures ETF (UVXY). Also I used this one too https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/investments-and-rental-properties/discussion/form-k1-and-1099-b-av... but I have a few questions as I'm trying to finalize my amended tax. 

 

Here is my case.

  1. When I filed my tax earlier this year, I had included the capital gains for UVXY that was part of form 1099B. I paid tax on this already.
  2. I got schedule K-1 (and K-3). Schedule K-1 was mailed to me but for some reasons, I saw schedule K-3 when I got an E-copy of K-1. 
  3. I entered the information on schedule K-1 and K-3 in Turbotax desktop
  4. It appears to generate a copy 2 of form 8949 with the UVXY info (based on what I entered)
    1. This is marked with (C) short-term transactions not reported to you on Form 1099-B
  5.  Form 6781 was also created to include the section 1256 contracts and straddles based on Schedule K-1 box 11 (C) Other Income (loss)
  6. After I entered all of the information on schedule K-1, I noticed my money owe went up a few dollars

Now, do I need to make any adjustment to form 8949 (copy 1) where all my trades are recorded?

This is the part I'm not  sure about.

.

Here are the details of what I did in Turbotax

  10. Enter Sale Information  (there were 2 columns)

  16.  Enter gross income info
    1. Foreign Gross Income - gross income sourced at partner (column F): 3026
    2. foreign gross income - gross income from all sources (column G): 3,071

      2. i have passive inactivity losses carried over from last year
      3. all of my investment in this activity is at risk
      4. i have at-risk losses carrying over from 2023
      5. i personally paid health insurance and/or long-term care insurance preiums ofr. myself and for my family
      6. i have passive activitiy credits to claim from this publicly traded partnership (this is not common)

That's it and it went back to the summary page and I clicked Done. Let me know if I should include an image of part III of form K-1 in here for clarity.

 

Can someone help me verify if what I entered were correct?

 

As mentioned above, I saw form 6781 and 8949 (copy 2) generated (copy 1 has all my stock trades info). My tax owed went up a few bucks. I had already paid the UVXY capital gain when I filed earlier this year.

 

Now I don't know if I need to make any adjustment to the cost basis for UVXY in form 8949 (copy 1). Can someone please help me?

 

@Rick19744, appreciate your help if you are available to take a look at my question. Sorry, only pinging you because I saw you had help people with schedule K-1 questions.

 

Anyone who is also available, I appreciate the help as well. I know this is late and I only got 3 days left to e-file this amended tax return.
