Sending K-1s to the right Limited Partners can be a manual, error-prone process. The new K-1 uploader helps ensure that every tax document goes to the right LP. When you upload your K-1s into Carta, our system will automatically match or suggest matches for LPs based upon name and tax ID.

Who this affects 

LP Portal customers, Fund Admin customers

What’s new

We have released a new tool for LP Portal customers to easily upload Schedule K-1 tax documents. This is the same tool used by Carta’s internal fund administrators.

The tool scans each K-1 to look for partner names and tax IDs, and compares them to the names and tax IDs we have on file.

If a K-1 matches with exactly one partner, the tool will automatically assign it to that partner.

If the tool is unable to definitively assign a document to a partner, it will suggest potential matches for user review.

To access the K-1 uploader, visit the Partners tab. Under Documents, select Upload documents and choose Schedule K-1.

Timing: This feature was released March 3, 2021
