What Is CrossAmerica Partners?
CrossAmerica Partners (CAPL) is a publicly traded partnership (PTP) in the energy sector. As a PTP, it issues Schedule K-1s to unitholders instead of 1099-DIVs, which creates unique tax reporting requirements.
Like all MLPs, CAPL distributions are not dividends — they're partnership distributions that reduce your cost basis over time. This makes accurate basis tracking essential.

→ Update your basis in the K-1 TrackerWhy Your Broker's CAPL Basis Is Wrong
Your broker tracks your original purchase price for CAPL but never sees your K-1. Each year, distributions, income allocations, liability changes, and depreciation deductions adjust your cost basis — and your broker makes none of these adjustments.
After just a few years, the gap between your broker's basis and reality can be thousands of dollars. When you sell, that gap becomes a tax surprise — and the IRS already knows the right number because they receive a copy of every K-1.
Warning
The longer you hold CAPL, the wider the gap grows. If you've held for 5+ years, your basis may be 25–50% lower than your broker's number. Don't discover this in the year you sell.

Key Tax Considerations
When you sell CAPL units, a portion of your gain may be recharacterized as ordinary income under IRC §751 — taxed at up to 37%, not the capital gains rate. The more physical infrastructure the MLP owns, the larger your §751 exposure grows each year.
CAPL also operates across multiple states, which may create nonresident filing obligations. Review your K-1 state schedule for allocations above each state's filing threshold.
