Schedule K-1 does not print to PDF

I have a simple partnership return with two partners and no income/expense. When I print the tax return to PDF for review, schedule K-1s are missing, only the cover letters are printed. The schedule K-1 pages are blank.

 

What could be the reason? Is it too early to finalize and file the tax returns?

 

Thanks!

Most likely, the K-1 schedules are missing because you had no income or expenses to be reported on them. It should not pose a problem as there is nothing you would need to enter from them on your personal tax return, as there are no tax numbers reported on them. It is not too early to finalize and submit your partnership return to the IRS.

Thanks for the reply.

 

I do need to print them out even though the K-1 has no numbers on them. The partners would need a copy of Schedule K-1 for their records.

 

Could you please let me know if there's a way to print the K-1 even if they're blank?

 

Thanks again!

Yes, you can print them out. A simple way to do that would be to use the Forms menu option to bring up the schedule, then print it using the Print option at the bottom of the form.
