1. Do I need to pay taxes in my 2023 return using the K1? Yes. The K1 reports your earnings as an owner of the business. Whatever earnings are reported on the K1 are taxable to you on your individual tax return as long as you are a part owner of the company.
2. If not, is the taxable event when I sell the stock? When you sell the stock it is a taxable event to you. You will either sell the stock for more than what you 'paid' for it resulting in a taxable gain, or for less than what you paid for it resulting in a deductible loss.
3. Will short or long term capital gains taxes be applied? It depends on when you sell it. The stock is not considered to be yours until you have control over it. In the case of your example that appears to be November of 2023. So if you sell the stock before you have owned it one year then it will be taxed as regular income (or short term) and if you sell it after you have had it more than one year it is taxed much more favorable (long term).
