PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS

Fidelity Leasing Income Fund VIII, L.P. (the "Fund"), a Delaware limited
partnership, was organized in 1990 and acquires computer equipment, including
printers, tape and disk storage devices, data communications equipment, com-
puter terminals, technical workstations, networking equipment, as well as other
electronic equipment that is leased to third parties on a short-term basis.
The Fund's principal objective is to generate leasing revenues for distri-
bution. The Fund manages the equipment, releasing or disposing of equipment
as it comes off lease in order to achieve its principal objective. The Fund
does not borrow funds to purchase equipment.

The Fund generally acquires equipment subject to a lease. Purchases of
equipment for lease are typically made through equipment leasing brokers,
under a sale-leaseback arrangement directly from lessees owning equipment or
from the manufacturer either pursuant to a purchase agreement relating to
significant quantities of equipment or on an ad hoc basis to meet the needs
of a particular lessee.

A brief description of the types of equipment in which the Fund has
invested as of December 31, 2002, together with information concerning the
users of such equipment is contained in Item 2, following.

The Fund does not have any employees. All persons who work on the Fund
are employees of the General Partner.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

Fidelity Leasing Income Fund VIII, L.P. had revenues of $303,562,
$536,922 and $678,950 for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and
2000, respectively. Earned income from direct financing leases and rental
income from the leasing of equipment accounted for 60%, 84% and 83% of total
revenues in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The decrease in total revenues
in 2002 was primarily attributable to the decrease in earned income on direct
financing leases. The decrease in this account was attributable to the
normal monthly amortization of unearned income using the interest method as
well as the termination of certain direct financing leases during 2002 and
2001. Additionally, the decrease in rental income also contributed to the
overall decrease in revenues in 2002 and 2001. Rental income decreased by
approximately $95,000 during the year ended December 31, 2002 because of
equipment under operating leases that terminated and was sold. This decrease
was mitigated by approximately $25,000 of rentals collected in 2002 on the
settlement of a lease for which a reserve was established in the prior year.
In 2001, rental income decreased by approximately $111,000 because of equipment
under operating leases that terminated and either was renewed at lower rental
rates or was sold. The fluctuation in interest income contributed to the de-
crease in total revenues in 2002 and lowered the decrease in total revenues in
2001. This account decreased in 2002 and increased in 2001 because of the
change in cash balances available for investment by the Fund. The cash avail-
able for investment decreased in 2002 as a result of larger cash distributions
paid to partners during the year ended December 31, 2002. In 2001, cash avail-
able for investment increased because of the proceeds collected on the early
termination of certain direct financing leases. Additionally, the increase in
net gain on sale of equipment mitigated the total decrease in income in 2002
and the decrease in this account in 2001 contributed to the overall decrease
in income in 2001. The Fund recognized a net gain on sale of equipment of
$45,871 for the year ended December 31, 2002 compared to $-0- in 2001 and
$44,873 in 2000.

Expenses were $266,657, $372,635 and $316,614 for the years ended
December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The decrease in total
expenses in 2002 and the increase in total expenses in 2001 was primarily
due to the change in the reserve for uncollectible accounts. During the year
ended December 31, 2001, approximately $109,000 was charged to this account
to reserve for potential uncollectible rents for one lease. There was no
reserve for uncollectible accounts recorded during the years ended December 31,
2002 and 2000. Depreciation expense comprised 10%, 16% and 40% of total ex-
penses during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Depreciation expense decreased in 2002 and 2001 because of equipment that
terminated and was sold during these years. The decrease in this account
contributed to the overall decrease in expenses in 2002 and mitigated the
overall increase in expenses in 2001. The increase in general and administra-
tive expense reduced the decrease in total expenses in 2002 and contributed
to the increase in total expenses in 2001. The increase in this account was
attributable to the increase in the various costs incurred to operate the Fund
on a daily basis. Additionally, management fee to related party decreased
during the twelve months ended December 31, 2002 and increased during the
twelve months ended December 31, 2001 which contributed to the decrease in

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Results of Operations (Continued)

total expenses during 2002 and the increase in total expenses during 2001.
The fluctuation in this account resulted from the variation in rentals
recognized on both operating and direct financing leases during 2002 and 2001.
Management fee to related party is calculated as a percentage of rental
proceeds.

The Fund's net income was $36,905, $164,287 and $362,336 for the years
ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The earnings per equiv-
alent limited partnership unit, after earnings allocated to the General
Partner, were $1.41, $11.53 and $26.69 based on a weighted average number of
equivalent limited partnership units outstanding of 10,254, 13,307 and 13,438
for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

The Fund generated cash from operations of $18,193, $334,757 and $442,771
for the purpose of determining cash available for distribution during the years
ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The Fund distributed
$1,710,000, $270,000 and $240,000 to partners during the period from April 1
through December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the first
quarter of 2003, 2002 and 2001, the Fund distributed $530,000, $810,000 and
$90,000 to partners, respectively. For financial statement purposes, the Fund
records cash distributions to partners on a cash basis in the period in which
they are paid.

Analysis of Financial Condition

The Fund is currently in the process of dissolution. As provided in
the Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, the assets of the Fund shall be
liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining their fair value.
During this time, the Fund will continue to look for opportunities to purchase
equipment under operating leases or invest in direct financing leases for
lease terms consistent with the plan of dissolution. The Fund invested in
$89,179, $760,417 and $1,851,498 of direct financing leases during
the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

The cash position of the Fund is reviewed daily and cash is invested on
a short-term basis.

The Fund's cash from operations is expected to continue to be adequate to
cover all operating expenses and contingencies during the next twelve month
period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations"
was issued. SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and
the associated asset retirement costs. Management expects to adopt SFAS
No. 143 on January 1, 2003 and is currently determining the impact of this
standard on its financial statements.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

In April 2002, SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and
64 and Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections" was
issued. SFAS No. 145 eliminates extraordinary accounting treatment for re-
porting gain or loss on debt extinguishment, and amends other existing pro-
nouncements to make technical corrections, clarify meanings or describe their
applicability under changed conditions. The adoption of SFAS No. 145 did not
have a material effect on the Fund's financial position, results of operations
or cash flows.

Item 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT
(Continued)

(b) In 1990, the General Partner contributed $1,000 to the capital of
the Fund but it does not own any of the Fund's outstanding securities.
No individual director or officer of LEAF Financial Corporation nor
such directors or officers as a group, owns more than one percent of the
Fund's outstanding securities. The General Partner owns a general part-
nership interest which entitles it to receive 1% of cash distributions
until the Limited Partners have received an amount equal to the purchase
price of their units plus an 11% cumulative compounded priority return;
thereafter 10%. The General Partner will also share in net income equal
to the greater of its cash distributions or 1% of net income or to the
extent there are losses, 1% of such losses.

(c) There are no arrangements known to the Fund that would, at any
subsequent date, result in a change in control of the Fund.

Item 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Fund was charged by the
General Partner $31,666 of management fees. The General Partner will
continue to receive 4% or 2% of rental payments on equipment under operating
leases and full pay-out leases, respectively, for administrative and manage-
ment services performed on behalf of the Fund. Full pay-out leases are
noncancellable leases for which rental payments during the initial term of
the lease are at least sufficient to recover the purchase price of the equip-
ment, including acquisition fees. All of the direct financing leases in
which the Fund has invested meet the criteria for a full pay-out lease and
pay a 2% management fee to the General Partner. This management fee is paid
monthly only if and when the Limited Partners have received distributions for
the period from the initial closing through the end of the most recent
calendar quarter equal to a return for such period at a rate of 11% per year
on the aggregate amount paid for their units.

The General Partner may also receive up to 3% of the proceeds from the
sale of the Fund's equipment for services and activities to be performed in
connection with the disposition of equipment. The payment of this sales fee
is deferred until the Limited Partners have received cash distributions equal
to the purchase price of their units plus an 11% cumulative compounded
priority return. Based on current estimates, it is not expected that the Fund
will be required to pay this sales fee to the General Partner.

The General Partner receives 1% of cash distributions until the Limited
Partners have received an amount equal to the purchase price of their units
plus an 11% cumulative compounded priority return. Thereafter, the General
Partner will receive 10% of cash distributions. During 2002, the General
Partner received cash distributions of $142,442.

The Fund incurred $94,304 of reimbursable costs to the General Partner
and its parent company for services and materials provided in connection with
the administration of the Fund during 2002.

Item 14. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Fund's Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief
Financial Officer (principal financial officer) have concluded, based on an
evaluation conducted within 90 days prior to the filing date of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K, that the Fund's disclosure controls and procedures have
functioned effectively so as to provide those officers the information
necessary to evaluate whether:

(i) this Annual Report on Form 10-K contains any untrue statement of a
material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such
statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered
by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and

(ii) the financial statements, and other financial information included
in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, fairly present in all material
respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
of the Fund as of, and for, the periods presented in this Annual Report
on Form 10-K.

There have been no significant changes in the Fund's internal controls or
in other factors since the date of the Chief Executive Officer's and Chief
Financial Officer's evaluation that could significantly affect internal con-
trols, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficien-
cies and material weaknesses.

Report of Independent Certified Public Accountants


The Partners
Fidelity Leasing Income Fund VIII, L.P.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Fidelity Leasing
Income Fund VIII, L.P. as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related
statements of operations, partners' capital and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the finan-
cial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examin-
ing, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting princi-
ples used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Leasing
Income Fund VIII, L.P. as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.

FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VIII, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Fidelity Leasing Income Fund VIII, L.P. (the Fund) was formed on
November 21, 1990. The General Partner of the Fund is LEAF Financial
Corporation (LEAF). LEAF is a wholly owned subsidiary of Resource Leasing,
Inc. which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Resource America, Inc. (Resource
America). The Fund is managed by the General Partner. The Fund's limited
partnership interests are not publicly traded. There is no market for the
Fund's limited partnership interests and it is unlikely that any will develop.
The Fund acquires computer equipment including printers, tape storage devices,
data communications equipment, computer terminals, technical workstations and
networking equipment, as well as other electronic equipment, that is leased to
third parties throughout the United States on a short-term basis.

The Fund is currently in the process of dissolution. As provided in the
Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, the assets of the Fund shall be liqui-
dated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining their fair value.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Fund to concentra-
tions of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments. The
Fund places its temporary investments in money market savings accounts.

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivables are
due to the limited dispersion of the Fund's lessees over different industries
and geographies.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Fund adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No.
144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", on
January 1, 2002. SFAS No. 144 retains the existing requirements to recognize
and measure the impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used or to be
disposed by sale. SFAS No. 144 changes the requirements relating to reporting
the effects of a disposal or discontinuation of a business segment.

The Fund reviews its assets to determine if it has any long-lived assets
that are carried on the books for an amount that may not be recoverable. If it
is determined that an asset's estimated future cash flows will not be suf-
ficient to recover its carrying amount, an impairment charge will be recorded.
The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have any material effect on the Fund's
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


Equipment Held for Sale or Lease

Equipment held for sale or lease is carried at its estimated net realiz-
able value.

FIDELITY LEASING INCOME FUND VIII, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounting for Leases

The Fund's leasing operations consist of both direct financing and
operating leases. Under the direct financing method of accounting for leases,
income (the excess of the aggregate future rentals and estimated unguaranteed
residuals upon expiration of the lease over the related equipment cost) is
recognized over the life of the lease using the interest method.

Under the operating method of accounting for leases, the cost of the
leased equipment is recorded as an asset and depreciated on a straight-line
basis over its estimated useful life, up to seven years. Acquisition fees
associated with lease placements are allocated to equipment when purchased
and depreciated as part of equipment cost. Rental income consists primarily
of monthly periodic rentals due under the terms of the leases. Generally,
during the remaining terms of existing operating leases, the Fund will not
recover all of the undepreciated cost and related expenses of its rental
equipment and is prepared to remarket the equipment in future years. Upon
sale or other disposition of assets, the cost and related accumulated dep-
reciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if
any, is reflected in income.

Income Taxes

Federal and State income tax regulations provide that taxes on the income
or benefits from losses of the Fund are reportable by the partners in their
individual income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for such taxes has
been made in the accompanying financial statements.

Statements of Cash Flows

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Fund considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or
less to be cash equivalents.

Net Income per Equivalent Limited Partnership Unit

Net income per equivalent limited partnership unit is computed by
dividing net income allocated to limited partners by the weighted average
number of equivalent limited partnership units outstanding during the year.
The weighted average number of equivalent units outstanding during the year
is computed based on the weighted average monthly limited partners' capital
account balances, converted into equivalent units at $500 per unit.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations"
was issued. SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and
the associated asset retirement costs. Management expects to adopt SFAS
No. 143 on January 1, 2003 and is currently determining the impact of this
standard on its financial statements.

In April 2002, SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44
and 64 and Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections" was
issued. SFAS No. 145 eliminates extraordinary accounting treatment for
reporting gain or loss on debt extinguishment, and amends other existing
pronouncements to make technical corrections, clarify meanings or describe
their applicability under changed conditions. The adoption of SFAS No. 145
did not have a material effect on the Fund's financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.

3. ALLOCATION OF PARTNERSHIP INCOME, LOSS AND CASH DISTRIBUTIONS

Cash distributions, if any, are made monthly as follows: 99% to the
Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner, until the Limited Partners
have received an amount equal to the purchase price of their units, plus an
11% compounded priority return (an amount equal to 11% compounded annually on
the portion of the purchase price not previously distributed); thereafter,
90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partner.

Net Losses are allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the
General Partner. The General Partner is allocated Net Income equal to its
cash distributions, but not less than 1% of Net Income, with the balance
allocated to the Limited Partners.

Net Income (Losses) allocated to the Limited Partners are allocated to
individual limited partners based on the ratio of the daily weighted average
partner's net capital account balance (after deducting related commission
expense) to the total daily weighted average of the Limited Partners' net
capital account balances.

4. EQUIPMENT LEASED

The Fund's direct financing leases are for initial lease terms ranging
from 24 to 60 months. Unguaranteed residuals for direct financing leases
represent the estimated amounts recoverable at lease termination from lease
extensions or disposition of the equipment. The Fund reviews these residual
values quarterly. If the equipment's fair market value is below the estimated
residual value, an adjustment is made.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

4. EQUIPMENT LEASED (Continued)

The approximate net investment in direct financing leases as of Decem-
ber 31, 2002 is as follows:

Minimum lease payments to be received $347,000
Unearned rental income (30,000)
________
$317,000
========

Equipment on lease consists of equipment under an operating lease for an
initial lease term of 11 months.

The future approximate minimum rentals to be received on noncancellable
direct financing and operating leases as of December 31 are as follows:

Direct
Financing Operating

2003 $208,000 $1,000
2004 61,000 -
2005 52,000 -
2006 26,000 -
________ ______
$347,000 $1,000
======== ======

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The General Partner receives 4% or 2% of rental payments from equipment
under operating leases and full pay-out leases, respectively, for adminis-
trative and management services performed on behalf of the Fund. Full pay-out
leases are noncancellable leases for which the rental payments due during the
initial term of the lease are at least sufficient to recover the purchase price
of the equipment, including acquisition fees. This management fee is paid
monthly only if and when the Limited Partners have received distributions for
the period from the initial closing through the end of the most recent calendar
quarter equal to a return for such period at a rate of 11% per year on the
aggregate amount paid for their units.

The General Partner may also receive up to 3% of the proceeds from the
sale of the Fund's equipment for services and activities to be performed in
connection with the disposition of equipment. The payment of this sales fee
is deferred until the Limited Partners have received cash distributions equal
to the purchase price of their units plus an 11% cumulative compounded
priority return. Based on current estimates, it is not expected that the
Fund will be required to pay this sales fee to the General Partner.
