K-1 Tax form: Limited or General Partner for LLC Partnership

Billie Joe
Posted
  • It is my understanding, that when you have an LLC limited partnership, at least one of the partners are General. We have 2 partners, and the type of business is rental.

    One partner is Limited and the other is General- who materially participates in the business.

    However, our CPA checked the box that says "Limited partner or other LLC member" on the K-1 form for BOTH partners.

    Will that pose a problem when we go to file on personal taxes? Or does it even matter?

    The options on the K-1 are:
    *General partner or LLC member-manager
    *Limited partner or other LLC member
    *Domestic partner
    *Foreign partner


    Should partner #1 have "Limited Partner" on their K-1 & Partner #2 have "General Partner" on their K-1?

    I would think that having the different statuses would be taxed differently, but I could be wrong...  

Since we're on the topic, I should also ask: If they are taxed differently, what is the difference?
