Need help on this subject.
I am not sure whether members got this message or not.

We already done with the Tax and got recently the statement
from the TDA pointing out that the GLD transactions as shown
above changed. We sold the GLD in the last year.

I am not sure about the investment expenses and return of
principal will make the entries change in the K1 or not.

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks
