Sending K-1s to Your Partners or Shareholders
Once your entity return has been signed, you can distribute K-1s to partners or shareholders either electronically or as downloaded copies to mail yourself.
Electronic distribution: each recipient gets a secure email link and consents to receive their K-1 electronically. If someone declines electronic delivery, you’ll get a notification so you know to mail theirs instead.
Mailing hard copies: download the K-1 packages and print/mail them yourself. Smaller downloads save to your computer’s normal download location; larger batches land in a “My Downloads” folder inside SafeSend, under your entity’s name.
K-1s can’t be distributed until the underlying return has been signed.
