President's Message

Dear Shareholder:

The Federal Reserve Board's effort to keep inflation in check without over-cooling the U.S. economy has taken a toll on the stock market. Through July 2000, bellwether equity indexes such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average, NASDAQ and S&P 500^® have negative returns for the year. On the other hand, fixed-income markets are enjoying strong performance. Except for high-yield, most bond sectors - corporates, mortgages, Treasuries and agencies - have returned 4%-6% year to date.

While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that can help investors plan for their future needs.

The longer your investment time frame, the less likely it is that you will be affected by short-term market volatility. A 10-year investment horizon appropriate for saving for a college education, for example, enables you to weather market cycles in a long-term fund, which may have a higher risk potential, but also has a higher potential rate of return.

An intermediate-length fund could make sense if your investment horizon is two to four years, while a short-term bond fund could be the right choice if you need your money in one or two years.

If your time horizon is less than a year, you might want to consider moving some of your bond investment into a money market fund. These funds seek income and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to remember that an investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although money market funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in these types of funds.

Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you lower the average cost of your purchases. Of course, you should consider your financial ability to continue your purchases through periods of low price levels before undertaking such a strategy.

If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-6666, or visit our web site at www.fidelity.com. We are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide you the information you need to make the investments that are right for you.

Annual Report

Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the fund's income, as reflected in its yield, to measure performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the total returns and dividends would have been lower.

Cumulative Total Returns

Periods ended July 31, 2000	Past 1 year	Past 5 years	Past 10 years
Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund	6.42%	34.85%	98.80%
LB GNMA	6.78%	38.95%	111.31%
GNMA Funds Average	5.53%	32.33%	96.14%

Cumulative total returns show the fund's performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or 10 years. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's returns to the performance of the Lehman Brothers GNMA Index - a market value-weighted index of fixed-rate securities that represent interests in pools of mortgage loans with original terms of 15 and 30 years and are issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA). To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the GNMA funds average, which reflects the performance of mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Inc. The past one year average represents a peer group of 54 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.

Average Annual Total Returns

Periods ended July 31, 2000	Past 1 year	Past 5 years	Past 10 years
Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund	6.42%	6.16%	7.11%
LB GNMA	6.78%	6.80%	7.77%
GNMA Funds Average	5.53%	5.76%	6.96%

Average annual total returns take the fund's cumulative return and show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a constant rate each year. (Note: Lipper calculates average annual total returns by annualizing each fund's total return, then taking an arithmetic average. This may produce a different figure than that obtained by averaging the cumulative total returns and annualizing the result.)

$10,000 Over 10 Years

$10,000 Over 10 Years: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund on July 31, 1990. As the chart shows, by July 31, 2000, the value of the investment would have grown to $19,880 - a 98.80% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers GNMA Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $21,131 - a 111.31% increase.

Understanding
Performance

How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow. Bond prices, for example, generally move in the opposite direction of interest rates. In turn, the share price, return and yield of a fund that invests in bonds will vary. That means if you sell your shares during a market downturn, you might lose money. But if you can ride out the market's ups and downs, you may have a gain.

Total Return Components

	Years ended July 31,
	2000	1999	1998	1997	1996
Dividend returns	6.80%	5.85%	6.63%	7.07%	6.58%
Capital returns	-0.38%	-3.77%	0.18%	3.04%	-1.03%
Total returns	6.42%	2.08%	6.81%	10.11%	5.55%

Total return components include both dividend returns and capital returns. A dividend return reflects the actual dividends paid by the fund. A capital return reflects both the amount paid by the fund to shareholders as capital gain distributions and changes in the fund's share price. Both returns assume the dividends or capital gains, if any, paid by the fund are reinvested.

Dividends and Yield

Periods ended July 31, 2000	Past 1 month	Past 6 months	Past 1 year
Dividends per share	5.66 ¢	33.93 ¢	68.79 ¢
Annualized dividend rate	6.39%	6.58%	6.63%
30-day annualized yield	6.66%	-	-

Dividends per share show the income paid by the fund for a set period. If you annualize this number, based on an average share price of $10.43 over the past one month, $10.34 over the past six months and $10.38 over the past one year, you can compare the fund's income over these three periods. The 30-day annualized yield is a standard formula for all bond funds based on the yields of the bonds in the fund, averaged over the past 30 days. This figure shows you the yield characteristics of the fund's investments at the end of the period. It also helps you compare funds from different companies on an equal basis.

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

Despite facing the challenge of five interest-rate increases during the 12-month period that ended July 31, 2000, the taxable bond market - as measured by the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index - returned 5.97%. The Federal Reserve Board's tightening policy, adopted to help slow down an overheated U.S. economy and ward off inflation, made for a sometimes difficult investing environment for bonds. During the first half of the period, the brunt of the Fed's action was felt by Treasuries, as they underperformed higher-yielding investment-grade spread sectors, such as corporate bonds and mortgage and government agency securities. In January, however, the momentum turned after the Treasury announced a plan to repurchase long-term debt and curtail future issuance. Treasury prices soared in response, sending their yields lower. This shift helped the Lehman Brothers Treasury Index return 6.48% during the period. At the same time, the Lehman Brothers Credit Bond Index - a measure of corporate bond performance - and the Lehman Brothers Mortgage-Backed Securities and U.S. Agency indexes returned 4.83%, 6.43% and 5.19%, respectively. Mortgage-backed securities rallied in the spring as a result of reduced supply, slower origination and a favorable prepayment environment. Elsewhere, rising default rates caused high-yield bonds to suffer more than most bonds, as the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index returned -0.57% for the 12-month period.

An interview with Tom Silvia, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Tom?

A. For the 12-month period that ended July 31, 2000, the fund provided a total return of 6.42%. To get a sense of how the fund did relative to its competitors, the GNMA funds average returned 5.53% for the same 12-month period, according to Lipper Inc. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers GNMA Index - which tracks the types of securities in which the fund invests - returned 6.78% for the same 12-month period.

Q. It was a pretty good year for Ginnie Mae securities compared with other mortgage securities. What drove their relatively strong performance?

A. A senior Treasury official shook up the mortgage market when he urged Congress to cut off long-standing but never-used lines of credit that give Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities implicit government backing. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are government sponsored enterprises, which enjoy the benefit of a $4.5 billion line of credit from the U.S. Treasury, giving the companies an "indirect" backing of the government. He also asked Congress to repeal "exceptions that let banks hold so much" of those securities. Although it remained unclear whether those recommendations would translate into actual policy, investors reacted to these and similar comments from members of Congress by selling Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities and buying Ginnie Maes - which are backed directly by the U.S. Treasury - instead.

Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund
Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What helped the fund outpace its peers during the past six months?

A. The fund's outperformance was almost completely due to its above-average weighting in Ginnie Mae securities. Ginnie Maes made up between 95% and 98% of the fund's net assets throughout most of the period. Additionally, the fund held few of the poorer-performing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities. The fund's performance also was helped by its comparatively large weighting in securities with coupons of about 7.0%, which outpaced higher-coupon securities.

Q. Were there any disappointments during the period?

A. There weren't any specific holdings that performed dramatically worse than the overall Ginnie Mae market. So I'd have to say that the only disappointment was the poor performance of the few Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities the fund owned. That said, I sold some Ginnie Mae holdings to lock in their relatively strong performance. I replaced them with additional Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae securities, which I felt had been unduly punished and offered attractive yields at relatively cheap prices as a result. By the end of the period, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities offered yields as much as 15 basis points (0.15%) higher than their Ginnie Mae counterparts.

Q. Interest rates moved around a bit during the period. Given that backdrop, how did you manage the fund's sensitivity to interest-rate changes?

A. I kept the fund's duration - a gauge of interest-rate sensitivity - in line with the Ginnie Mae market as a whole as measured by the Lehman Brothers GNMA Index. The duration of the index, and, therefore, of the fund, tends to be shorter than the average of the fund's peers. The shorter a fund's duration, the less its share price will fall as interest rates rise. As rates rose during the past six months, the fund benefited from its shorter-than-average duration.

Q. What's your outlook for the next several months, Tom?

A. We may see some slowing in the housing market if the economy slows. Even so, I think housing turnover activity could remain reasonably strong. Given that, I think that Ginnie Mae securities offer very attractive values at current levels, offering yields well in excess of U.S. Treasury securities and other fixed-income alternatives.

Fund Facts

Goal: to provide a high level of current income consistent with prudent investment risk by investing mainly in mortgage securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae)

Fund number: 015

Trading symbol: FGMNX

Start date: November 8, 1985

Size: as of July 31, 2000, more than $1.7 billion

Manager: Tom Silvia, since 1998; manager, various Fidelity and Spartan government bond funds; joined Fidelity in 1993

Tom Silvia on the strength of the housing market and its effect on the Ginnie Mae market:

"The strong housing market, fueled by the robust economy, favorable employment growth and rising personal incomes, benefited the Ginnie Mae market during the past year. Thanks to a significant wave of refinancing activity in 1998 and early 1999, a large portion of mortgages outstanding 12 months ago carried interest rates of 6.5% to 7.0%. As interest rates climbed throughout the past year, these bonds started to trade below their par value of $100. Essentially, investors weren't willing to pay full price - or par - for a bond that paid less income when they could buy a newly issued bond with a higher income. As a result, 6.5% to 7.0% mortgage securities began to trade at discount prices ranging from $92 to $96. But given the fact that the housing market was strong and an unusually large number of homeowners decided to move into other homes, many of those mortgage securities were paid off at a par ($100), resulting in fairly good performance for the mortgage market as a whole."

Average years to maturity is based on the average time remaining until principal payments are expected from each of the fund's bonds, weighted by dollar amount.

Duration as of July 31, 2000
		6 months ago
Years	3.9	5.3

Duration shows how much a bond fund's price fluctuates with changes in comparable interest rates.
If rates rise 1%, for example, a fund with a five-year duration is likely to lose about 5% of its value. Other factors also can influence a bond fund's performance and share price. Accordingly, a bond fund's actual performance may differ from this example.

Performance: The Bottom Line

Cumulative Total Returns

Periods ended July 31, 2000	Past 1 year	Past 5 years	Past 10 years
Fidelity Government Income	5.81%	32.49%	106.71%
LB Government Bond	6.18%	36.93%	110.65%
General U.S. Government Funds Average	4.97%	30.36%	92.86%

Cumulative total returns show the fund's performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or 10 years. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's returns to the performance of the Lehman Brothers Government Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of U.S. Government and government agency securities (other than mortgage securities) with maturities of one year or more. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the general U.S. Government funds average, which reflects the performance of mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Inc. The past one year average represents a peer group of 183 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.

$10,000 Over 10 Years

$10,000 Over 10 Years: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity Government Income Fund on July 31, 1990. As the chart shows, by July 31, 2000, the value of the investment would have grown to $20,671 - a 106.71% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Government Bond Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $21,065 - a 110.65% increase.

Dividends per share show the income paid by the fund for a set period. If you annualize this number, based on an average share price of $9.48 over the past one month, $9.40 over the past six months and $9.42 over the past one year, you can compare the fund's income over these three periods. The 30-day annualized yield is a standard formula for all bond funds based on the yields of the bonds in the fund, averaged over the past 30 days. This figure shows you the yield characteristics of the fund's investments at the end of the period. It also helps you compare funds from different companies on an equal basis.

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

(Portfolio Manager photograph)
An interview with Tom Silvia, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Government Income Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Tom?

A. For the 12-month period that ended July 31, 2000, the fund provided a total return of 5.81%. To get a sense of how the fund did relative to its competitors, the general U.S. government funds average returned 4.97% for the same 12-month period, according to Lipper Inc. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers Government Bond Index - which tracks the types of securities in which the fund invests - returned 6.18% for the same 12-month period.

Q. Why did the fund outpace its peers?

A. One of the major factors behind the fund's outperformance was its larger-than-average stake in mortgage securities, which have enjoyed relatively strong performance during the past several months thanks to reduced supply, a favorable prepayment environment and their high yields. The fund was helped by its comparatively large stake in long-maturity Treasury securities, which outpaced their shorter-term counterparts during the period.

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. Why did long-term Treasuries perform better than shorter-term ones?

A. As federal budget deficits were replaced by budget surpluses, the U.S. government cut back on the size and frequency of new bond offerings. Furthermore, the government began to buy back outstanding longer-term bonds. As a result, the longer-term securities started trading in relation to expectations about supply and demand rather than on the basis of predictions about future interest rates. Anticipating a scarcity of longer-term bonds, investors pushed 30-year bond yields lower and their prices higher even as short-term interest rates and Treasury yields rose.

Q. The reduction in supply of Treasuries, coupled with expectations that supply would diminish further, created an unusual situation . . .

A. That's true. The difference in the performances and yields between short- and long-term Treasuries caused the Treasury yield curve - a graphical representation of the yields offered by various bond maturities - to "invert" for the first time since 1990. Usually, investors demand higher yields on longer-term bonds than on shorter-term ones, reflecting the greater risk in lending money over a longer period of time. But because of the reduction in supply of long-term securities over the past six months, the yield on the 30-year bond fell to more than half a percentage point lower than the yield on the two-year Treasury note during the spring.

Q. How did the fund's stake in agencies - which made up about 45% of net assets at the end of the period - perform?

A. Agency securities definitely had their ups and downs during the year. In the initial months of the period, they gained ground on Treasuries as the supply of agency securities dwindled. But in early 2000, a senior Treasury official shook up the market when he urged Congress to limit the long-standing but never-used lines of credit that give some agencies - particularly mortgage security issuers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac - implicit government backing. Although it remained unclear whether those recommendations would translate into actual reform, investors generally avoided agency securities. Despite these tribulations, agencies overall posted decent one-year returns, thanks mostly to their relatively high levels of income.

Q. Were there any disappointments?

A. I wouldn't single out any particular security that performed poorly during the period. However, the fund's stake in short-term Treasury and agency securities didn't perform as well as I expected due to rising interest rates.

Q. What's your outlook?

A. I believe that mortgage and agency securities continue to offer very attractive long-term values. The current yield advantage they enjoy over Treasuries helps position them to perform better than those securities, in my view. That's why I plan to keep relatively large weightings in them. To the extent that their spread relationship relative to Treasuries returns to more normal levels, they can do well. Even if the current spread relationship remains constant, their yield advantage should help them gain ground on Treasuries.

Fund Facts

Goal: high current income with preservation of principal

Fund number: 054

Trading symbol: FGOVX

Start date: April 4, 1979

Size: as of July 31, 2000, more than $1.4 billion

Manager: Tom Silvia, since 1998; manager, various Fidelity and Spartan government bond funds; joined Fidelity in 1993

Tom Silvia on recent developments in the agency market:

"Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) and, as such, enjoy certain benefits, including a $4.5 billion line of credit from the U.S. Treasury. They purchase home loans from originators such as banks, thrifts and mortgage banks, which they hold for their own investment portfolios. They also pool home loans into mortgage securities. Whether they hold mortgages for their own portfolios or whether they package them as securities, the effect is that cash is freed up so that originators can make new loans. As a result, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac securities make up a fast-growing share of the government debt markets at a time when the Treasury is limiting its issuance.

"Although its emergency line of credit to the U.S. Treasury has never been tapped, it carries symbolic significance because it traditionally has allowed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to borrow at interest rates close to the U.S. government's rate. Renewed government interest in curbing Fannie's and Freddie's line of credit and limiting how much of their securities commercial banks can own have caused these securities to perform poorly recently."

Performance: The Bottom Line

Cumulative Total Returns

Periods ended July 31, 2000	Past 1 year	Past 5 years	Past 10 years
Fidelity Intermediate Govt Income	5.11%	32.64%	87.11%
LB Int Government Bond	5.16%	33.52%	98.13%
Short-Intermediate U.S. Government Funds Average	4.42%	28.28%	85.54%

Cumulative total returns show the fund's performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or 10 years. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's returns to the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of U.S. Government fixed-rate debt issues with maturities between one and 10 years. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the short-intermediate U.S. Government funds average, which reflects the performance of mutual funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper, Inc. The past one year average represents a peer group of 91 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.

$10,000 Over 10 Years

$10,000 Over 10 Years: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity Intermediate Government Income Fund on July 31, 1990. As the chart shows, by July 31, 2000, the value of the investment would have grown to $18,711 - an 87.11% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government Bond Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $19,813 - a 98.13% increase.

Dividends per share show the income paid by the fund for a set period. If you annualize this number, based on an average share price of $9.32 over the past one month, $9.27 over the past six months and $9.33 over the past one year, you can compare the fund's income over these three periods. The 30-day annualized yield is a standard formula for all bond funds based on the yields of the bonds in the fund, averaged over the past 30 days. This figure shows you the yield characteristics of the fund's investments at the end of the period. It also helps you compare funds from different companies on an equal basis. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the yield would have been 6.54%.

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

(Portfolio Manager photograph)
An interview with Andrew Dudley, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Intermediate Government Income Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Andy?

A. For the 12-month period that ended July 31, 2000, the fund provided a total return of 5.11%. To get a sense of how the fund did relative to its competitors, the short-intermediate U.S. government funds average returned 4.42% for the same 12-month period, according to Lipper Inc. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government Bond Index, which tracks the types of securities in which the fund invests, returned 5.16% for the same 12-month period.

Q. There were quite a few interesting developments in the government bond market during the past year. Can you tell us about those and how they affected the fund's performance?

A. Sure. The interest-rate environment was probably the most influential factor on performance. During the first half of the period, a series of interest-rate hikes and ongoing inflationary concerns muted government bond returns and, by extension, the fund's performance. And even though the Federal Reserve Board continued to raise interest rates in the second half of the period, government bonds - and the fund - performed much better than in the first half. The fact that the U.S. Treasury department scaled back its auctions of new debt and repurchased several billion dollars of outstanding Treasuries provided a more positive overall tone for the bond market. Furthermore, investors began to anticipate that the Fed was nearing the end of its nearly yearlong campaign of interest-rate hikes, given that some economic indicators suggested the economy was beginning to slow.

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What helped the fund outpace its peers during the past year?

A. One of the key factors behind the fund's outperformance was its larger-than-average stake in short-term agency securities. Agency securities struggled under the weight of more supply as the various agencies increased their issuance. In addition, the agency market experienced some uncertainty as key legislators and other government officials began to re-examine the agencies' relationship with the U.S. government. Although expanding supply and uncertainty put pressure on all agency prices, shorter-term agencies outpaced longer-term ones, which was a plus for the fund's performance. That said, the fund did own some longer-term agency securities, which proved to be the biggest disappointment for the year.

Q. Which agency securities did you emphasize?

A. I continued to shift more of the fund's agency holdings into securities issued by the four top-tier agency issuers: Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Federal Home Loan Bank and Federal Farm Credit Bureau. I liked them because their liquidity means I can more easily buy and sell them as I see opportunities in the marketplace.

Q. Where were the opportunities in the mortgage market?

A. Early in the period - when mortgage prepayment activity was relatively intense - I held onto discount mortgages, which carry interest rates below prevailing rates - about 7.0% - and sell at a price below their face, or "par" value. Despite the fact that mortgage rates rose in response to higher interest rates and refinancing activity slowed as a result, housing turnover remained robust. The strong economy and rising personal income prompted many existing homeowners to upgrade. Discount mortgages performed well because a larger-than-expected number of loans were prepaid due to housing turnover, despite the fact that prevailing rates were higher, that was a positive event for holders of discount securities. In the second half, I felt that many discount bonds had approached their fair value. So I started to shift some holdings away from discounts and into par and premium bonds - those with interest rates between 7.5% and 8.5% - because they offered more attractive levels of income.

Q. What's ahead for the fund?

A. Because they represent such attractive values - relative to their historic prices and to other government security alternatives - I plan to keep the majority of the fund's holdings in agency securities. By the end of the period, the yield difference - the "spread" - between five-year Treasuries and five-year agency securities was about 75 basis points (0.75%), which is very wide on a historic basis. Since I believe that much of the uncertainty surrounding agency securities is currently priced in, I think that this large amount of additional yield adequately rewards investors.

Andrew Dudley on the potential reform of the U.S. agency market:

"Over the past several months, political crosscurrents have agitated the U.S. agency security market. Some government officials and legislators have indicated their desire to re-examine the relationship between the U.S. Treasury Department's indirect backing of some governmental agencies, including Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. While the upcoming presidential election likely will delay any passage of reform this year, debate will continue and some changes eventually may be made. The question becomes: ´How far will that reform go?' One possible outcome is that the agencies' long-standing but never-used lines of credit from the government somehow will be tied to how closely they adhere to their missions. It's a situation that may have further effects on the agency market, and one I'll continue to monitor very closely. In the end, I believe that some type of reform is a positive development. Some additional oversight and measures of control likely will encourage the agencies to maintain aggressive risk management practices."

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended July 31, 2000

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund, Fidelity Government Income Fund and Fidelity Intermediate Government Income Fund (the funds) are funds of Fidelity Income Fund (the trust). The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the funds:

Security Valuation. Securities are valued based upon a computerized matrix system and/or appraisals by a pricing service, both of which consider market transactions and dealer-supplied valuations. Securities (including restricted securities) for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.

Income Taxes. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for the fiscal year. The schedules of investments include information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."

Investment Income. Interest income, which includes accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned.

Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the funds in the trust.

Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions to shareholders from realized capital gains on investments, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences, which may result in distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for paydown gains/losses on certain securities, market discount, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments may include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.

1. Significant Accounting
Policies - continued

Security Transactions. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.

2. Operating Policies.

Joint Trading Account. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the funds, along with other affiliated entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.

Repurchase Agreements. The underlying U.S. Treasury, Federal Agency, or other obligations found to be satisfactory by FMR are transferred to an account of the funds, or to the Joint Trading Account, at a custodian bank. The securities are marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). FMR, the funds' investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value requirements stated above.

Delayed Delivery Transactions. Each fund may purchase or sell securities on a delayed delivery basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities

and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The market values of the securities purchased on a delayed delivery basis are identified as such in each applicable fund's schedule of investments. Each fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery security. With respect to purchase commitments, each fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

Restricted Securities. Certain funds are permitted to invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. At the end of the period no funds had investments in restricted securities (excluding 144A issues).

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Information regarding purchases and sales of securities (other than short-term securities), is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of each applicable fund's schedule of investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. As the investment adviser for Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund and Fidelity Government Income Fund, FMR receives a monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of each fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .0920% to .3700% for the period. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. In the event that these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same or a lower management fee. For the period, the management fees were equivalent to annual rates of .43% of average net assets for the Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund and Fidelity Government Income Fund.

As the investment adviser for Fidelity Intermediate Government Income Fund, FMR receives a fee that is computed daily at an annual rate of .65% of the fund's average net assets. FMR pays all other expenses, except the compensation of the non-interested Trustees and certain exceptions such as interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses. The management fee paid to FMR by the fund is reduced by an amount equal to the fees and expenses paid by the fund to the non-interested Trustees.

Sub-Adviser Fee. FMR, on behalf of each fund, has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR. For its services, FIMM receives a fee from FMR of 50% of the management fee payable to FMR. The fee is paid prior to any voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect.

Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is the funds' transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent, for Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund and Fidelity Government Income Fund. FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual rate of .15% and .20% of the average net assets of Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund and Fidelity Government Income Fund, respectively.

Accounting and Security Lending Fees. FSC maintains each fund's accounting records for Fidelity Ginnie Mae and Fidelity Government Income Fund and administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses.

5. Security Lending.

Certain funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Each applicable fund receives collateral(in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not

5. Security Lending -
continued

less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the funds and any additional required collateral is delivered to the funds on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. At period end there were no security loans outstanding.

6. Expense Reductions.

For Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund and Fidelity Intermediate Government Income Fund, FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse the funds' operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, certain securities lending fees, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses, if any) above a specified percentage of average net assets.

(i) Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund. For the period, this expense limitation was 0.63% of average net assets and the reimbursement reduced expenses by $67,000. Through June 30, 2001 FMR has agreed to limit the fund's operating expenses to an annual rate of 0.63% of average net assets.

(ii) Fidelity Intermediate Government Income Fund. For the period, this expense limitation ranged from an annual rate of 0.61% to 0.63% of average net assets and the reimbursement reduced expenses by $171,000. Through January 1, 2001 FMR has agreed to limit the fund's total operating expense to an annual rate of 0.61% of average net assets.

In addition, through arrangements with Fidelity Ginnie Mae Fund's and Fidelity Government Income Fund's custodian and transfer agent, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of each applicable fund's expenses. For the period, the reductions under these arrangements are shown under the caption "Other Information" on each applicable fund's Statement of Operations.

Through arrangements with Fidelity Intermediate Government Income Fund's custodian and transfer agent, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of the fund's expenses. During the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by $24,000 under these arrangements.

7. Merger Information.

On April 22, 1999, Fidelity Intermediate Government Income Fund acquired all of the assets and assumed all of the liabilities of Spartan Short-Intermediate Government Fund. The acquisition, which was approved by the shareholders of Spartan Short-Intermediate Government Fund on April 14, 1999, was accomplished by an exchange of 7,363,405 shares of the Fidelity Intermediate Government Income Fund (each valued at $9.69) for the 7,680,451 shares then outstanding (each valued at $9.29) of Spartan Short-Intermediate Government Fund.

Fidelity On-line Xpress+ software for Windows combines comprehensive portfolio management capabilities, securities trading and access to research and analysis tools . . . all on your desktop.

* When you call the quotes line, please remember that a fund's yield and return will vary and, except for money market funds, share price will also vary. This means that you may have a gain or loss when you sell your shares. There is no assurance that money market funds will be able to maintain a stable $1 share price; an investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. government. Total returns are historical and include changes in share price, reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, and the effects of any sales charges.
