My Business Accountant Used My Nickname For My Business Tax

I'm a first-time small businessowner, and I am filing for business tax for the first time. The accountant who filed my business' taxes used my nickname instead of my legal name when he filed it, so the name in my K-1 is different from the name I have always used for my personal taxes. Will this be a problem when I file my personal taxes?

My Business Accountant Used My Nickname For My Business Tax

As long as the last name and social security number are correct there is no issue.  Even if one of those is incorrect, just report it correctly on your personal return and there won't be an issue. It is not anything to be concerned about.  That said, you should correct it next year.
