Retirement tax questions

If the shares of the partnership were purchased within your IRA, then the K-1 should be reported to the Federal ID number of your IRA instead of your Social Security number.  If that is the case, then you do not enter any of the K-1 information on your personal return.  Keep it for your records.

Look for the partner's ID number shown on the left side of the K-1 to be sure your Social Security number is not there.
