Thank you. 

As an owner of a couple of duplexes I have benefitted from depreciation over the past 20 years. I am now looking to move into passive investing and still want the benefits of depreciation to lower my taxable income (if possible). Presently I simply have a line item on my schedule E (1040) which allows me the deduction. How does this work as an LP to a syndication? What is the tax form(s) used to depreciate the LP portion and what is the form that is sent out from the GP showing the amount of depreciation? I did not see a line item on the K-1 for depreciation. Am I missing something?  

Thanks In Advance.
