President's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

The three major benchmarks of U.S. stock market performance - the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM, Standard & Poor's 500SM Index and NASDAQ Composite® Index - recorded gains in October 2001, the first time since April that all three indexes had positive monthly returns. However, each still dwelled in double-digit negative territory for the year overall. Conversely, nearly every investment-grade bond category enjoyed a year-to-date gain of 10% or more.

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.

Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with your investments.

Best regards,

/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

Annual Report

Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund - Class A

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate 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 class' dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the class' income, as reflected in its yield, to measure performance. The initial offering of Class A shares took place on September 3, 1996. Class A shares bear a 0.15% 12b-1 fee. Returns prior to September 3, 1996 are those of Class T, the original class of the fund, and reflect Class T shares' 0.15% 12b-1 fee. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the past five year and past 10 year total returns would have been lower.

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 Class A's returns to the performance of the Lehman Brothers® 1-3 Year Government/Credit Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of government and investment-grade corporate fixed-rate debt issues with maturities between one and three years. To measure how Class A's performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the short investment grade debt 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 114 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 Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund - Class A on October 31, 1991, and the current 1.50% sales charge was paid. As the chart shows, by October 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $17,771 - a 77.71% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year Government/Credit Bond Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $18,722 - an 87.22% 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.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

Investment-grade bonds provided some of the best returns of any asset class, continuing a two-year trend that coincided with extreme volatility in the equity markets. While stocks generally posted double-digit losses, investment-grade bonds saw double-digit advances, as measured by the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index. This trend was furthered during the 12-month period ending October 31, 2001. In that time, the Lehman Brothers index - a proxy for taxable-bond performance - returned 14.56%. On a year-to-date basis through October, the index was up nearly 11%. If the benchmark finishes 2001 with a return of more than 10%, it will mark the first time since 1985-1986 that it recorded double-digit gains in two consecutive years. The various categories of investment-grade taxable bonds performed similarly well during the past 12 months. Corporates had a slight performance edge as investors shifted toward higher-yielding securities for most of the period. The Lehman Brothers Credit Bond Index was up 15.80% for the year. Agencies were right behind at 15.46%, according to the Lehman Brothers U.S. Agency Index. Treasuries gained significant ground after the terrorist attacks of September 11, as investors searched for investments with less credit risk. The Lehman Brothers Treasury Index gained 14.95% during the 12-month period. High levels of prepayment activity held back the returns of mortgage bonds somewhat, but the Lehman Brothers Mortgage-Backed Securities Index still gained a solid 13.08%.

An interview with Andrew Dudley, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Andy?

A. For the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2001, the fund's Class A, Class T and Class C shares returned 10.22%, 10.21% and 9.30%, respectively. To get a sense of how the fund did relative to its competitors, the return for the short investment grade debt funds average as tracked by Lipper Inc. was 9.93%. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year Government/Credit Bond Index returned 11.36%.

Q. What factors drove the fund's performance during the period?

A. The fund's gains were propelled by rapidly declining short-term interest rates, which caused short-term bond yields to fall and their prices - which move opposite their yields - to rise. The Federal Reserve Board has cut interest rates on nine separate occasions for a total of four percentage points so far in 2001. The early cuts were aimed at reviving a sluggish economy. The two most recent cuts - which took place after the events of September 11 - were designed to stabilize the global financial markets and prevent a recession from deepening. Short-maturity and, to a lesser extent, intermediate-term bonds dramatically outperformed longer-term securities during the period because longer-term bond yields and prices aren't as closely linked to Fed actions. Against that backdrop, short-term U.S. Treasury securities saw the biggest gains, followed by agency, corporate and mortgage securities.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What were your principal strategies throughout the year?

A. In the corporate bond sector - which made up about 41% of the fund's assets at the end of the period - I maintained a defensive posture, focusing on industries with a history of holding up reasonably well during economic slumps, including utilities, and sectors that were already priced to reflect a potential slowdown, such as real estate investment trusts. I also made some additions to the fund's stake in corporate bonds with higher credit ratings. That said, the fund's stake in lower-quality bonds trailed their higher-quality counterparts as the economy deteriorated.

Q. How did the fund's stake in mortgage securities - which made up about 13% of assets at the end of the period - affect performance?

A. Mortgage securities performed well and were a significant contributor to the fund's performance. In fact, prices of many of the most actively traded U.S. mortgage securities rose to historic highs at the end of October, thanks to investors' growing appetite for high-quality, higher-yielding alternatives to U.S. Treasury securities. That said, the mortgage market had to contend with several waves of refinancing activity as falling interest rates spurred record numbers of borrowers to refinance their home loans. Investors typically dislike rapid prepayment activity because it potentially forces them to reinvest the proceeds at lower prevailing interest rates. Security selection within the mortgage market also was a plus for performance. I emphasized mortgage securities that had some measure of protection against prepayments, and they performed relatively well. These included 15-year mortgage securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and commercial mortgage-backed securities.

Q. Were there any disappointments?

A. The fund's stake in agency securities was small relative to the market overall, which somewhat hurt the fund's returns given how well they performed during the year. Various government proposals designed to alter the nature of the relationship between some agencies and the government faded from view for a bit, providing a more favorable backdrop for agency securities.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What's your outlook?

A. Given evidence that the economy continues to weaken, the bond market is priced such that it seemingly is expecting more interest-rate cuts to come. If there are further rate cuts in the offing, bonds would likely benefit, just as they have during most of the past year. If, on the other hand, signs of an economic rebound emerge, interest rates may stabilize. Against a lower or more stable interest-rate backdrop, I'm optimistic about the outlook for bonds that offer yield advantages over Treasuries, including corporate, mortgage and agency securities. To the extent that investors look for high-quality, higher-yielding fixed-income investments, those segments of the market should benefit relative to Treasuries.

Andrew Dudley on the suspension of auctions of 30-year U.S. Treasury bonds:

"The 30-year Treasury bond, also known as the ´long bond,' has been a steady feature of U.S. fixed-income markets since it was first regularly issued in the 1970s. Since then, it has become a proxy for interest rates and is the standard against which other fixed-income investments are measured. In late October, the U.S. Treasury surprised many with its announcement that it would suspend its future auctions of 30-year bonds. According to Treasury officials, the move would cut borrowing costs since the government currently pays higher rates for long-term bonds than for short-term notes and bills. Other observers pointed out that the Treasury - perhaps working with the blessing of the Federal Reserve Board - also might have been intent on bringing down stubbornly high long-term rates as a means of stimulating the economy. The market's immediate reaction was to push the prices of 30-year Treasuries significantly higher, anticipating a scarcity of the long bond in the months to come. At the same time, corporations began to issue more long-term bonds, looking to take advantage of lower long-term borrowing costs. Looking ahead, the suspension of the 30-year auction may mean that the spread - or the difference in yield - between Treasuries on the one side and agency, mortgage and corporate securities on the other side - will remain wider than historical norms, a reflection of the scarcity of Treasuries and an abundant supply of other types of bonds."

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.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended October 31, 2001

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 fund:

Security Valuation. Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. 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 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. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

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

Investment Income. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, 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.

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements - continued

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences 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.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

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.

Change in Accounting Principle. Effective November 1, 2001 the fund will adopt the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and will begin amortizing premium and discount on all debt securities, as required. This accounting principle change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to net investment income.

The cumulative effect of this accounting change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to accumulated net undistributed realized gain (loss).

2. Operating Policies.

Joint Trading Account. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the fund, 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 fund, 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 fund's investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value requirements stated above.

2. Operating Policies - continued

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. The fund may purchase or sell securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued 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. During the time a delayed delivery sell is outstanding, the contract is "marked to market" daily and equivalent deliverable securities are held for the transaction. The values of the securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the fund's Schedule of Investments. The fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, the 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 value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Restricted Securities. The fund may 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. Information regarding restricted securities is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Information regarding purchases and sales of securities is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee.

The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate of .30% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .13% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annual management fee rate, was .43% of the fund's average net assets.

In addition FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund and providing shareholder support services.

Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc., an affiliate of FMR, maintains the fund's accounting records. 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.

Central Funds. The fund may invest in affiliated Central Funds managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR. The Central Funds are open-end investment companies available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and do not pay a management fee. Income distributions earned by the fund are recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $81,620 for the period.

5. Security Lending.

The fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. The 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 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 fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the fund 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. Cash collateral is invested in cash equivalents. At the end of the period there were no security loans outstanding.

Independent Auditors' Report

To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series II and Shareholders of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund, (the Fund), a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II, including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2001, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2001, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles 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 and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund as of October 31, 2001, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

President's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

The three major benchmarks of U.S. stock market performance - the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM, Standard & Poor's 500SM Index and NASDAQ Composite® Index - recorded gains in October 2001, the first time since April that all three indexes had positive monthly returns. However, each still dwelled in double-digit negative territory for the year overall. Conversely, nearly every investment-grade bond category enjoyed a year-to-date gain of 10% or more.

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.

Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with your investments.

Best regards,

Annual Report

Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund - Institutional Class

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate 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 class' dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the class' income, as reflected in its yield, to measure performance. The initial offering of Institutional Class shares took place on July 3, 1995. Institutional Class shares are sold to eligible investors without a sales load or 12b-1 fee. Returns prior to July 3, 1995 are those of Class T, the original class of the fund, and reflect Class T shares' 0.15% 12b-1 fee. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the past five year and past 10 year total returns would have been lower.

Cumulative total returns show Institutional Class' 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 Institutional Class' returns to the performance of the Lehman Brothers® 1-3 Year Government/Credit Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of government and investment-grade corporate fixed-rate debt issues with maturities between one and three years. To measure how Institutional Class' performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the short investment grade debt 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 114 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 Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund - Institutional Class on October 31, 1991. As the chart shows, by October 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $18,264 - an 82.64% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year Government/Credit Bond Index did over the same period. With dividends, and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $18,722 - an 87.22% 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.

Dividends per share show the income paid by the class for a set period. If you annualize this number, based on an average share price of $9.47 over the past one month, $9.39 over the past six months, and $9.33 over the past one year, you can compare the class' 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.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

Investment-grade bonds provided some of the best returns of any asset class, continuing a two-year trend that coincided with extreme volatility in the equity markets. While stocks generally posted double-digit losses, investment-grade bonds saw double-digit advances, as measured by the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index. This trend was furthered during the 12-month period ending October 31, 2001. In that time, the Lehman Brothers index - a proxy for taxable-bond performance - returned 14.56%. On a year-to-date basis through October, the index was up nearly 11%. If the benchmark finishes 2001 with a return of more than 10%, it will mark the first time since 1985-1986 that it recorded double-digit gains in two consecutive years. The various categories of investment-grade taxable bonds performed similarly well during the past 12 months. Corporates had a slight performance edge as investors shifted toward higher-yielding securities for most of the period. The Lehman Brothers Credit Bond Index was up 15.80% for the year. Agencies were right behind at 15.46%, according to the Lehman Brothers U.S. Agency Index. Treasuries gained significant ground after the terrorist attacks of September 11, as investors searched for investments with less credit risk. The Lehman Brothers Treasury Index gained 14.95% during the 12-month period. High levels of prepayment activity held back the returns of mortgage bonds somewhat, but the Lehman Brothers Mortgage-Backed Securities Index still gained a solid 13.08%.

An interview with Andrew Dudley, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Andy?

A. For the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2001, the fund's Institutional Class shares returned 10.43%. To get a sense of how the fund did relative to its competitors, the return for the short investment grade debt funds average as tracked by Lipper Inc. was 9.93%. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year Government/Credit Bond Index returned 11.36%.

Q. What factors drove the fund's performance during the period?

A. The fund's gains were propelled by rapidly declining short-term interest rates, which caused short-term bond yields to fall and their prices - which move opposite their yields - to rise. The Federal Reserve Board has cut interest rates on nine separate occasions for a total of four percentage points so far in 2001. The early cuts were aimed at reviving a sluggish economy. The two most recent cuts - which took place after the events of September 11 - were designed to stabilize the global financial markets and prevent a recession from deepening. Short-maturity and, to a lesser extent, intermediate-term bonds dramatically outperformed longer-term securities during the period because longer-term bond yields and prices aren't as closely linked to Fed actions. Against that backdrop, short-term U.S. Treasury securities saw the biggest gains, followed by agency, corporate and mortgage securities.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What were your principal strategies throughout the year?

A. In the corporate bond sector - which made up about 41% of the fund's assets at the end of the period - I maintained a defensive posture, focusing on industries with a history of holding up reasonably well during economic slumps, including utilities, and sectors that were already priced to reflect a potential slowdown, such as real estate investment trusts. I also made some additions to the fund's stake in corporate bonds with higher credit ratings. That said, the fund's stake in lower-quality bonds trailed their higher-quality counterparts as the economy deteriorated.

Q. How did the fund's stake in mortgage securities - which made up about 13% of assets at the end of the period - affect performance?

A. Mortgage securities performed well and were a significant contributor to the fund's performance. In fact, prices of many of the most actively traded U.S. mortgage securities rose to historic highs at the end of October, thanks to investors' growing appetite for high-quality, higher-yielding alternatives to U.S. Treasury securities. That said, the mortgage market had to contend with several waves of refinancing activity as falling interest rates spurred record numbers of borrowers to refinance their home loans. Investors typically dislike rapid prepayment activity because it potentially forces them to reinvest the proceeds at lower prevailing interest rates. Security selection within the mortgage market also was a plus for performance. I emphasized mortgage securities that had some measure of protection against prepayments, and they performed relatively well. These included 15-year mortgage securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and commercial mortgage-backed securities.

Q. Were there any disappointments?

A. The fund's stake in agency securities was small relative to the market overall, which somewhat hurt the fund's returns given how well they performed during the year. Various government proposals designed to alter the nature of the relationship between some agencies and the government faded from view for a bit, providing a more favorable backdrop for agency securities.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What's your outlook?

A. Given evidence that the economy continues to weaken, the bond market is priced such that it seemingly is expecting more interest-rate cuts to come. If there are further rate cuts in the offing, bonds would likely benefit, just as they have during most of the past year. If, on the other hand, signs of an economic rebound emerge, interest rates may stabilize. Against a lower or more stable interest-rate backdrop, I'm optimistic about the outlook for bonds that offer yield advantages over Treasuries, including corporate, mortgage and agency securities. To the extent that investors look for high-quality, higher-yielding fixed-income investments, those segments of the market should benefit relative to Treasuries.

Andrew Dudley on the suspension of auctions of 30-year U.S. Treasury bonds:

"The 30-year Treasury bond, also known as the ´long bond,' has been a steady feature of U.S. fixed-income markets since it was first regularly issued in the 1970s. Since then, it has become a proxy for interest rates and is the standard against which other fixed-income investments are measured. In late October, the U.S. Treasury surprised many with its announcement that it would suspend its future auctions of 30-year bonds. According to Treasury officials, the move would cut borrowing costs since the government currently pays higher rates for long-term bonds than for short-term notes and bills. Other observers pointed out that the Treasury - perhaps working with the blessing of the Federal Reserve Board - also might have been intent on bringing down stubbornly high long-term rates as a means of stimulating the economy. The market's immediate reaction was to push the prices of 30-year Treasuries significantly higher, anticipating a scarcity of the long bond in the months to come. At the same time, corporations began to issue more long-term bonds, looking to take advantage of lower long-term borrowing costs. Looking ahead, the suspension of the 30-year auction may mean that the spread - or the difference in yield - between Treasuries on the one side and agency, mortgage and corporate securities on the other side - will remain wider than historical norms, a reflection of the scarcity of Treasuries and an abundant supply of other types of bonds."

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.

For the period ended October 31, 2001

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 fund:

Security Valuation. Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. 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 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. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

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

Investment Income. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, 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.

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements - continued

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences 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.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

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.

Change in Accounting Principle. Effective November 1, 2001 the fund will adopt the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and will begin amortizing premium and discount on all debt securities, as required. This accounting principle change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to net investment income.

The cumulative effect of this accounting change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to accumulated net undistributed realized gain (loss).

2. Operating Policies.

Joint Trading Account. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the fund, 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 fund, 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 fund's investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value requirements stated above.

2. Operating Policies - continued

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. The fund may purchase or sell securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued 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. During the time a delayed delivery sell is outstanding, the contract is "marked to market" daily and equivalent deliverable securities are held for the transaction. The values of the securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the fund's Schedule of Investments. The fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, the 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 value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Restricted Securities. The fund may 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. Information regarding restricted securities is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Information regarding purchases and sales of securities is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee.

The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate of .30% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .13% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annual management fee rate, was .43% of the fund's average net assets.

Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Service Plans for each class of shares . Each class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, separate Distribution and Service Fees, each of which is based on an annual percentage of each class' average net assets. In addition FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund and providing shareholder support services. For the period, the Distribution and Service Fee rates and the total amounts paid to and retained by FDC were as follows.

Sales Load. FDC receives a front-end sales charge of up to 1.50% for selling Class A and Class T shares of the fund. FDC receives the proceeds of a contingent deferred sales charge levied on Class A, Class T, and Class C share redemptions. These charges depend on the holding period. The deferred sales charge is 1% for Class C and .25% for certain purchases of Class A and Class T shares.

For the period, sales charge amounts paid to and retained by FDC were as follows:

Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc., an affiliate of FMR, maintains the fund's accounting records. 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.

Central Funds. The fund may invest in affiliated Central Funds managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR. The Central Funds are open-end investment companies available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and do not pay a management fee. Income distributions earned by the fund are recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $81,620 for the period.

5. Security Lending.

The fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. The 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 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 fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the fund 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. Cash collateral is invested in cash equivalents. At the end of the period there were no security loans outstanding.

6. Expense Reductions.

Independent Auditors' Report

To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series II and Shareholders of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund, (the Fund), a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II, including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2001, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2001, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles 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 and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Advisor Short Fixed-Income Fund as of October 31, 2001, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

President's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

The three major benchmarks of U.S. stock market performance - the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM, Standard & Poor's 500SM Index and NASDAQ Composite® Index - recorded gains in October 2001, the first time since April that all three indexes had positive monthly returns. However, each still dwelled in double-digit negative territory for the year overall. Conversely, nearly every investment-grade bond category enjoyed a year-to-date gain of 10% or more.

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.

Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with your investments.

Best regards,

/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

Annual Report

Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund - Class A

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate 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 class' dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the class' income, as reflected in its yield, to measure performance. The initial offering of Class A shares took place on September 3, 1996. Class A shares bear a 0.15% 12b-1 fee. Returns prior to September 3, 1996 are those of Class T, the original class of the fund, and reflect Class T shares' 0.25% 12b-1 fee. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the past five year and past 10 year total returns would have been lower.

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 Class A's returns to those of the Lehman Brothers® Municipal 3 Plus Year Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of investment-grade municipal bonds with maturities of three years or more. To measure how Class A's performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the general municipal debt 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 270 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.

Performance - continued

$10,000 Over 10 Years



$10,000 Over 10 Years: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity ® Advisor Municipal Income Fund - Class A on October 31, 1991, and the current 4.75% sales charge was paid. As the chart shows, by October 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $18,356 - an 83.56% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of investment grade municipal bonds with maturities of one year or more - did over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $19,817 - a 98.17% 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.

Dividends per share show the income paid by the class for a set period and do not reflect any tax reclassifications. If you annualize this number, based on an average share price of $12.67 over the past one month, $12.52 over the past six months and $12.42 over the past one year, you can compare the class' 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. The offering share price used in the calculation of the yield includes the effect of Class A's current 4.75% sales charge. The tax-equivalent yield shows what you would have to earn on a taxable investment to equal the class' tax-free yield, if you're in the 35.50% federal tax bracket, but does not reflect payment of the federal alternative minimum tax, if applicable.

Class B shares bear a 0.90% 12b-1 fee (1.00% prior to January 1, 1996). Returns prior to June 30, 1994 are those of Class T, the original class of the fund, and reflect Class T shares' 0.25% 12b-1 fee. Had Class B shares' 12b-1 fee been reflected, returns prior to June 30, 1994 would have been lower. Class B shares' contingent deferred sales charges included in the past one year, past five year and past 10 year total return figures are 5%, 2% and 0%, respectively.

$10,000 Over 10 Years: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund - Class B on October 31, 1991. As the chart shows, by October 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $18,237 - an 82.37% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of investment grade municipal bonds with maturities of one year or more - did over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $19,817 - a 98.17% 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.

If you annualize this number, based on an average share price of $12.64 over the past one month, $12.50 over the past six months and $12.40 over the past one year, you can compare the class' 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. The offering share price used in the calculation of the yield excludes the effect of Class B's contingent deferred sales charge. The tax-equivalent yield shows what you would have to earn on a taxable investment to equal the class' tax-free yield, if you're in the 35.50% federal tax bracket, but does not reflect payment of the federal alternative minimum tax, if applicable.

Annual Report

Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund - Class C

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate 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 class' dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the class' income, as reflected in its yield, to measure performance. The initial offering of Class C shares took place on November 3, 1997. Class C shares bear a 1.00% 12b-1 fee. Returns between June 30, 1994 and November 3, 1997 are those of Class B shares and reflect Class B shares' 0.90% (1.00% prior to January 1, 1996) 12b-1 fee. Returns prior to June 30, 1994 are those of Class T, the original class of the fund, and reflect Class T shares' 0.25% 12b-1 fee. Had Class C shares' 12b-1 fee been reflected, returns between November 3, 1997 and January 1, 1996 and prior to June 30, 1994 would have been lower. Class C shares' contingent deferred sales charge included in the past one year, past five year and past 10 year total return figures are 1%, 0% and 0%, respectively. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the past five year and past 10 year total returns would have been lower.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

With a 10.50% return for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2001, the municipal bond market, as measured by the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index, may be on pace to record two consecutive calendar years of double-digit positive performance for the first time since 1988-1989. The Lehman Brothers index, which measures the performance of approximately 40,000 investment-grade, fixed-rate, tax-exempt bonds, gained 11.68% in 2000 and was up 7.03% year-to-date through October 2001. The performance of the muni market benefited significantly from the aggressive easing of interest rates by the Federal Reserve Board in an effort to jumpstart a domestic economy poised on the brink of recession. Through the end of October, the Fed slashed the federal funds rate - the rate charged by banks for overnight loans - nine times, bringing it down from 6.50% at the beginning of the year to 2.50% at the end of the period, its lowest level in 39 years. Municipal bonds also reaped the benefits of strong demand, as many investors sought shelter from both taxes and the volatile equity markets. Municipals did take a slight dip in September, as the tragic events of September 11 and their aftermath resulted in a nervous rush to the security of Treasury bonds. But munis rebounded strongly in the final month of the period.

An interview with Christine Thompson, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Christine?

A. For the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2001, the fund's Class A, Class T, Class B and Class C shares had total returns of 10.72%, 10.59%, 9.83% and 9.69%, respectively. To get a sense of how the fund did relative to its competitors, the general municipal debt funds average returned 9.63% for the same 12-month period, according to Lipper Inc. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers 3 Plus Year Municipal Bond Index, which tracks the types of securities in which the fund invests, returned 10.91% for the same 12-month period.

Q. What factors drove the fund's performance?

A. Falling interest rates provided a boost for the overall municipal market and were the primary contributor to the fund's returns during the past 12 months. The Federal Reserve Board cut interest rates nine times during the period, bringing municipal bond yields lower and their prices - which move in the opposite direction of their yields - higher. The fund's outperformance of its peers during the year was partly the result of the fact that I kept its overall interest-rate sensitivity in line with the market as a whole.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. Why did that approach lead to stronger returns?

A. Even though interest rates ended the period at significantly lower levels than a year ago, they were subject to a fair amount of volatility throughout the year as investors reacted to contradictory signs about the economy's strength and inflation. Although it may be difficult to recall in light of recent events, many economists began 2001 with expectations for sustained economic growth. A surprise interest-rate cut in early January fueled hopes that an economic downturn could be averted, briefly derailing the bond rally that began in late 2000. Early spring brought renewed hopes that first-quarter interest-rate cuts would position the economy to rebound by year's end. In January and in the spring, interest rates and some bond yields actually drifted higher. Given that volatility, having too much or too little interest-rate sensitivity at the wrong time was perilous. Rather than speculate about the direction of interest rates, I emphasized attractively valued securities across the bond maturity spectrum.

Q. What other factors aided performance?

A. The fund's defensive positioning helped performance. By defensive, I'm referring to my focus on high-quality bonds and on municipal issuers backed by fee, rather than tax, revenues. Throughout the year, I increased the fund's already high credit quality, with about 85% of its investments in bonds rated A or higher by Moody's Investors Service or Standard & Poor's® at the end of the period. In addition, approximately half of the fund's investments were insured, meaning their principal and interest payments - but not their prices - are guaranteed by a municipal bond insurer. I chose to emphasize high-quality bonds because I didn't feel lower-quality bonds offered enough additional yield for their added risk and heightened susceptibility to an economic slowdown. In terms of issuers, I kept a relatively modest weighting - compared to the municipal market overall - in general obligation bonds, which are backed by economically sensitive sales, income and other taxes. Instead, I focused on those issuers that provide essential services - such as electric utilities, water and sewer departments and transportation systems - which generate more stable income through fees. I also maintained a relatively large stake in health care bonds, which performed well as pricing trends improved, competitive pressures eased and the regulatory environment turned more favorable.

Q. Which holdings were disappointments?

A. Economic and credit quality concerns put pressure on lower-quality investment-grade bonds rated Baa. For the reasons I stated earlier, I limited the fund's stake in them to 11.89% of investments at the end of the period.

Q. Were there any areas of the country you avoided?

A. The fund's stake in bonds issued in California was quite small relative to the market overall throughout the year, in large part because I remained concerned about the state's economic prospects and its energy problems. I also maintained a slightly smaller stake in New York bonds, which performed well during the summer but have come under some pressure due to the tragic events of September 11. Beyond those two states - which together make up roughly 25% of the municipal bond market - I diversified across states that offered a combination of reasonably priced municipal bonds, strong municipal demand and good credit quality, such as Illinois, Texas, Washington and Colorado.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What's ahead for the municipal market?

A. For many municipal bond issuers, the current economic climate is likely to result in declining tax receipts and expanding costs - such as stepped up security spending and increased unemployment benefits. So we'll proceed with a great deal of caution in choosing investments for the fund, continuing our focus on high-quality, economically resilient segments of the market. As for the market overall, municipals are priced very cheaply compared to their U.S. Treasury counterparts. Municipals could benefit to the extent that investors embrace those valuations.

Christine Thompson on trends in credit quality:

"Not so long ago, the main question many municipal issuers were struggling with was what to do with their growing surpluses. But now, the nation's economic slump and the tragic events of September 11 have forced issuers - namely states - to confront the dual challenges of declining revenues and increased spending. After years of enhancing services, scaling back taxes and building up their rainy day funds, many states are confronted with the difficult choice of where to trim spending as sales tax receipts dwindle and corporate and individual income-tax collections fall. At the same time, the aftermath of the terrorist attacks are forcing more issuers to step up spending on items such as increased security. To help remedy this situation, more and more state lawmakers across the country are contemplating or have already convened special legislative sessions to deal with potential budget shortfalls. While these challenges currently are most acute at the state level, I expect there to be to be a ´trickle down' effect at the local level in the months to come. These developments serve to highlight how important it is for a municipal bond investor to ascertain an issuer's ability to weather the storm. Fidelity's credit research team pays very close attention to a variety of considerations, including the cyclicality of a state's revenues - that is, how sensitive those revenues are to an economic slowdown; the size of its rainy day fund and how willing the issuer is to draw on it to close budgetary gaps; and how actively the issuer is scaling back spending in response to reduced revenues."

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.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended October 31, 2001

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 fund:

Security Valuation. Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. 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 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. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

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

Investment Income. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium, 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.

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements - continued

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for futures transactions, market discount, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to futures transactions.

In addition, the fund will treat a portion of the proceeds from shares redeemed as a distribution from net investment income for income tax purposes.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

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.

Change in Accounting Principle. Effective November 1, 2001, the fund will adopt the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and will begin amortizing premium and discount on all debt securities, as required. This accounting principle change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to net investment income.

The cumulative effect of this accounting change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to accumulated net undistributed realized gain (loss).

2. Operating Policies.

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. The fund may purchase or sell securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued 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. During the time a delayed delivery sell is outstanding, the contract is "marked to market" daily and equivalent deliverable securities are held for the transaction. The values of the securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the fund's Schedule of Investments. The fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities - continued

security. With respect to purchase commitments, the 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 value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Restricted Securities. The fund may 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.

To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series II and the Shareholders of Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund (a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II) at October 31, 2001, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2001 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

The three major benchmarks of U.S. stock market performance - the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM, Standard & Poor's 500SM Index and NASDAQ Composite® Index - recorded gains in October 2001, the first time since April that all three indexes had positive monthly returns. However, each still dwelled in double-digit negative territory for the year overall. Conversely, nearly every investment-grade bond category enjoyed a year-to-date gain of 10% or more.

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.

Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with your investments.

Annual Report

Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund - Institutional Class

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate 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 class' dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the class' income, as reflected in its yield, to measure performance. The initial offering of Institutional Class shares took place on July 3, 1995. Institutional Class shares are sold to eligible investors without a sales load or 12b-1 fee. Returns prior to July 3, 1995 are those of Class T, the original class of the fund, and reflect Class T shares' 0.25% 12b-1 fee. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the past five year and past 10 year total returns would have been lower.

Cumulative total returns show Institutional Class' 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 Institutional Class' returns to those of the Lehman Brothers® 3 Plus Year Municipal Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of investment-grade municipal bonds with maturities of three years or more. To measure how Institutional Class' performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the general municipal debt 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 270 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 ® Advisor Municipal Income Fund - Institutional Class on October 31, 1991. As the chart shows, by October 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $19,457 - a 94.57% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of investment grade municipal bonds with maturities of one year or more - did over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $19,817 - a 98.17% 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.

Dividends per share show the income paid by the class for a set period and do not reflect any tax reclassifications. If you annualize this number, based on an average net asset value of $12.63 over the past one month, $12.48 over the past six months, and $12.38 over the past one year, you can compare the class' 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. The tax-equivalent yield shows what you would have to earn on a taxable investment to equal the class' tax-free yield, if you're in the 35.50% federal tax bracket, but does not reflect payment of the federal alternative minimum tax, if applicable.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

With a 10.50% return for the 12-month period ending October 31, 2001, the municipal bond market, as measured by the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index, may be on pace to record two consecutive calendar years of double-digit positive performance for the first time since 1988-1989. The Lehman Brothers index, which measures the performance of approximately 40,000 investment-grade, fixed-rate, tax-exempt bonds, gained 11.68% in 2000 and was up 7.03% year-to-date through October 2001. The performance of the muni market benefited significantly from the aggressive easing of interest rates by the Federal Reserve Board in an effort to jumpstart a domestic economy poised on the brink of recession. Through the end of October, the Fed slashed the federal funds rate - the rate charged by banks for overnight loans - nine times, bringing it down from 6.50% at the beginning of the year to 2.50% at the end of the period, its lowest level in 39 years. Municipal bonds also reaped the benefits of strong demand, as many investors sought shelter from both taxes and the volatile equity markets. Municipals did take a slight dip in September, as the tragic events of September 11 and their aftermath resulted in a nervous rush to the security of Treasury bonds. But munis rebounded strongly in the final month of the period.

An interview with Christine Thompson, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Christine?

A. For the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2001, the fund's Institutional Class shares had a total return of 10.91%. To get a sense of how the fund did relative to its competitors, the general municipal debt funds average returned 9.63% for the same 12-month period, according to Lipper Inc. Additionally, the Lehman Brothers 3 Plus Year Municipal Bond Index, which tracks the types of securities in which the fund invests, returned 10.91% for the same 12-month period.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What factors drove the fund's performance?

A. Falling interest rates provided a boost for the overall municipal market and were the primary contributor to the fund's returns during the past 12 months. The Federal Reserve Board cut interest rates nine times during the period, bringing municipal bond yields lower and their prices - which move in the opposite direction of their yields - higher. The fund's outperformance of its peers during the year was partly the result of the fact that I kept its overall interest-rate sensitivity in line with the market as a whole.

Q. Why did that approach lead to stronger returns?

A. Even though interest rates ended the period at significantly lower levels than a year ago, they were subject to a fair amount of volatility throughout the year as investors reacted to contradictory signs about the economy's strength and inflation. Although it may be difficult to recall in light of recent events, many economists began 2001 with expectations for sustained economic growth. A surprise interest-rate cut in early January fueled hopes that an economic downturn could be averted, briefly derailing the bond rally that began in late 2000. Early spring brought renewed hopes that first-quarter interest-rate cuts would position the economy to rebound by year's end. In January and in the spring, interest rates and some bond yields actually drifted higher. Given that volatility, having too much or too little interest-rate sensitivity at the wrong time was perilous. Rather than speculate about the direction of interest rates, I emphasized attractively valued securities across the bond maturity spectrum.

Q. What other factors aided performance?

A. The fund's defensive positioning helped performance. By defensive, I'm referring to my focus on high-quality bonds and on municipal issuers backed by fee, rather than tax, revenues. Throughout the year, I increased the fund's already high credit quality, with about 85% of its investments in bonds rated A or higher by Moody's Investors Service or Standard & Poor's® at the end of the period. In addition, approximately half of the fund's investments were insured, meaning their principal and interest payments - but not their prices - are guaranteed by a municipal bond insurer. I chose to emphasize high-quality bonds because I didn't feel lower-quality bonds offered enough additional yield for their added risk and heightened susceptibility to an economic slowdown. In terms of issuers, I kept a relatively modest weighting - compared to the municipal market overall - in general obligation bonds, which are backed by economically sensitive sales, income and other taxes. Instead, I focused on those issuers that provide essential services - such as electric utilities, water and sewer departments and transportation systems - which generate more stable income through fees. I also maintained a relatively large stake in health care bonds, which performed well as pricing trends improved, competitive pressures eased and the regulatory environment turned more favorable.

Q. Which holdings were disappointments?

A. Economic and credit quality concerns put pressure on lower-quality investment-grade bonds rated Baa. For the reasons I stated earlier, I limited the fund's stake in them to 11.89% of investments at the end of the period.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. Were there any areas of the country you avoided?

A. The fund's stake in bonds issued in California was quite small relative to the market overall throughout the year, in large part because I remained concerned about the state's economic prospects and its energy problems. I also maintained a slightly smaller stake in New York bonds, which performed well during the summer but have come under some pressure due to the tragic events of September 11. Beyond those two states - which together make up roughly 25% of the municipal bond market - I diversified across states that offered a combination of reasonably priced municipal bonds, strong municipal demand and good credit quality, such as Illinois, Texas, Washington and Colorado.

Q. What's ahead for the municipal market?

A. For many municipal bond issuers, the current economic climate is likely to result in declining tax receipts and expanding costs - such as stepped up security spending and increased unemployment benefits. So we'll proceed with a great deal of caution in choosing investments for the fund, continuing our focus on high-quality, economically resilient segments of the market. As for the market overall, municipals are priced very cheaply compared to their U.S. Treasury counterparts. Municipals could benefit to the extent that investors embrace those valuations.

Christine Thompson on trends in credit quality:

"Not so long ago, the main question many municipal issuers were struggling with was what to do with their growing surpluses. But now, the nation's economic slump and the tragic events of September 11 have forced issuers - namely states - to confront the dual challenges of declining revenues and increased spending. After years of enhancing services, scaling back taxes and building up their rainy day funds, many states are confronted with the difficult choice of where to trim spending as sales tax receipts dwindle and corporate and individual income-tax collections fall. At the same time, the aftermath of the terrorist attacks are forcing more issuers to step up spending on items such as increased security. To help remedy this situation, more and more state lawmakers across the country are contemplating or have already convened special legislative sessions to deal with potential budget shortfalls. While these challenges currently are most acute at the state level, I expect there to be to be a ´trickle down' effect at the local level in the months to come. These developments serve to highlight how important it is for a municipal bond investor to ascertain an issuer's ability to weather the storm. Fidelity's credit research team pays very close attention to a variety of considerations, including the cyclicality of a state's revenues - that is, how sensitive those revenues are to an economic slowdown; the size of its rainy day fund and how willing the issuer is to draw on it to close budgetary gaps; and how actively the issuer is scaling back spending in response to reduced revenues."

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.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended October 31, 2001

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 fund:

Security Valuation. Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. 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 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. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

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

Investment Income. Interest income, which includes amortization of premium, 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.

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements - continued

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for futures transactions, market discount, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to futures transactions.

In addition, the fund will treat a portion of the proceeds from shares redeemed as a distribution from net investment income for income tax purposes.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

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.

Change in Accounting Principle. Effective November 1, 2001, the fund will adopt the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and will begin amortizing premium and discount on all debt securities, as required. This accounting principle change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to net investment income.

The cumulative effect of this accounting change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to accumulated net undistributed realized gain (loss).

2. Operating Policies.

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. The fund may purchase or sell securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued 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. During the time a delayed delivery sell is outstanding, the contract is "marked to market" daily and equivalent deliverable securities are held for the transaction. The values of the securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the fund's Schedule of Investments. The fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued

Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities - continued

security. With respect to purchase commitments, the 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 value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.

Restricted Securities. The fund may 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. Information regarding restricted securities is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Information regarding purchases and sales of securities is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee.

The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate of .25% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .13% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annual management fee rate was .38% of the fund's average net assets.

Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Service Plans for each class of shares. Each class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, separate Distribution and Service Fee, each of which is based on an annual percentage of each class' average net assets. In addition, FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund and providing shareholder support services. For the period, the

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund (a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II) at October 31, 2001, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fidelity Advisor Municipal Income Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 2001 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

The three major benchmarks of U.S. stock market performance - the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM, Standard & Poor's 500SM Index and NASDAQ Composite® Index - recorded gains in October 2001, the first time since April that all three indexes had positive monthly returns. However, each still dwelled in double-digit negative territory for the year overall. Conversely, nearly every investment-grade bond category enjoyed a year-to-date gain of 10% or more.

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.

Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with your investments.

Best regards,

/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

Annual Report

Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund - Class A

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate 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 class' dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the class' income as reflected in its yield to measure performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the total returns and dividends would have been lower.

n/a*

Cumulative total returns show Class A's performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since the fund started on September 7, 1999. 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 Class A's returns to the performance of the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index - a market value-weighted index of all domestic and yankee high-yield bonds, including deferred interest bonds and payment-in-kind securities. Issues included in the index have maturities of one year or more and have a credit rating lower than BBB-/Baa3, but are not in default. To measure how Class A's performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the high current yield 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 388 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.

$10,000 Over Life of Fund



$10,000 Over Life of Fund: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity ® Advisor High Income Fund - Class A on September 7, 1999, when the fund started, and the current 4.75% sales charge was paid. As the chart shows, by October 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have been $9,957 - a 0.43% decrease on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index did over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have been $9,741 - a 2.59% decrease.

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.

Dividends per share show the income paid by the class for a set period. The annual dividend rate is based on an average share price of $8.69 over the past one month, $8.94 over the past six months and $9.00 over the past one year. The 30-day annualized yield is a standard formula based on the yields of the securities 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. The offering share price used in the calculation of the yield includes the effect of Class A's current 4.75% sales charge.

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate 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 class' dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the class' income as reflected in its yield to measure performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the total returns and dividends would have been lower.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

High-yield bonds ended a turbulent 12 months with a marginally positive return, as measured by the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index - a broad measure of high-yield market performance. The benchmark closed up slightly at 0.05% for the one-year period ending October 31, 2001. While that performance won't quite be remembered as stellar, the return looks almost gaudy compared to the U.S. stock market during the same time frame, as most equity indexes suffered double-digit losses during the past year. Overall, the returns from the high-yield market were held back by a default rate of approximately 9%. Telecommunications companies, the largest component of the Merrill Lynch benchmark, continued to be plagued by a lack of capital flowing into the sector and near industry-wide profit warnings. The cable-TV industry - the second-largest component of the Merrill Lynch index - also declined throughout the period, while the air transportation segment fell 24% during the third quarter of 2001, due almost entirely to the devastating events of September 11. On the positive side of the ledger, the overall high-yield market offered investors a yield of approximately 13% at the end of the period, nearly eight percentage points higher than the yield of 10-year Treasury notes.

An interview with Matthew Conti, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund

Q. Matt, how did the fund perform?

A. For the 12 months that ended October 31, 2001, the fund's Class A, Class T, Class B and Class C shares had total returns of 1.83%, 1.63%, 1.08% and 0.86%, respectively. The high-yield market, as measured by the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index, returned 0.05%, while the high current yield funds average tracked by Lipper Inc. fell 3.98%.

Q. What helped the fund perform better than its index and peers?

A. The fund outperformed its benchmark and peer group due to my reorientation of the portfolio after I took it over in February 2001. Specifically, I gave the fund a more diversified, higher-quality, income-focused structure. I increased investments in the health care, energy, financial, electric utility and retailing industries. I moved the fund away from its previously overweighted position in telecommunications investments which proved to be a timely strategy, as that sector markedly underperformed the rest of the high-yield market. Changing the fund's focus to bonds with higher credit ratings, cutting back the fund's stock investments and reducing its exposure to bonds of lower credit quality also proved fruitful, as did my divestiture of the fund's holdings in deferred payment securities. These are riskier bonds that do not pay any current income, issued by companies with limited or no cash flow. I preferred to invest in cash-pay securities, which do offer regular income payments and are more conservative in nature. This approach proved advantageous, as high-yield investors avoided risk and gravitated toward the more conservative side of the spectrum.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. How did you approach managing the fund after the terrorist attacks of September 11?

A. I maintained my overall strategy, and remained focused on securing high income and avoiding defaults. That said, I did take a look at some of the new opportunities that arose in the high-yield area. For instance, many airline bonds fell from investment-grade to junk-bond status in the wake of September's events. I looked for those airline companies I felt would survive in a difficult travel environment. As a result, I invested in Delta and AMR, the holding company for American Airlines, because I felt those companies had the best balance-sheet structures in the industry. I particularly focused on bonds secured by some of the companies' newer airplanes. I also reduced investments in hotels that were dependent upon air travel for their customers. Instead, I looked to invest in hotel and gaming stocks that drew customers who drove from more local areas, including Connecticut casino Mohegan Sun.

Q. What were some of the investments that performed well during the period? Which disappointed?

A. Among the positive performers were some of the fund's investments in the cable television and video industries. This is one sector I chose to overweight because the companies' cash flows tend to remain consistent within even the most difficult economic environments. Although this sector of the index lost ground during the period, the fund benefited from its focus on the stability of U.S. cable companies, rather than their speculative European counterparts that suffered losses during the period. Among the investments that performed well in this area were Century Communications (now owned by another top performer, Adelphia Communications) and EchoStar Communications. The events of September 11 created an even better scenario for these firms due to the "nesting effect," the tendency of more people to stay at home after such a tragedy. These cable companies enjoy a near monopoly and thus have been able to increase their rates. I'd also mention Rite Aid. This pharmacy retailer's new management team significantly reduced the company's debt, cleaned up its balance sheet and improved its cash flow. Nearly all of the fund's disappointments were very small positions in the fund, including two companies in the telecom sector. The first was Nextel, which suffered from taking on increasing debt amid doubts about the firm's ability to meet its future financing needs. The fund still owns the company's bonds, but at a reduced weighting. Microcell, a Canadian wireless company, struggled against the same factors, and was eliminated from the fund. Finally, Finova, a financial services company, was hit hard due to its exposure to the aircraft and resort industries.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What's your outlook?

A. While defaults could continue to increase in the short term, most of the damage is likely behind us, in my view, allowing for better prospects eventually. Specifically, the market continues to weed out companies that will not survive: the firms that need money but cannot make or raise it. As these weaker companies fall by the wayside, the overall credit quality of the market should improve. Defaults look as if they may peak at some point in the middle of 2002, which should be a positive development, as would signs of an economic improvement. High-yield bonds currently offer extremely attractive yields within an environment of very low short-term interest rates relative to long-term yields. Typically, this is a positive backdrop for high-yield bonds.

Matt Conti on his research process:

"High-yield is a bond-picker's market. I spend most of my time trying to protect the fund from downside risk, looking to allow a bond's income to provide most of the return. The foundation of my investment process is fundamental company research. I look to develop a thorough understanding of each company through meetings with management, competitive analysis, financial models and an analysis of the company's capital structure. I use a full array of contacts to determine whether or not I want to pursue an investment in a particular company. These may include Fidelity's internal analysts, top- and middle-level company executives, rating agencies, political contacts, consultants, market experts and lawyers both within and outside of Fidelity. In addition, I intensively analyze Fidelity's proprietary research alongside the company's financial statements.

"Then, I aim to determine whether or not the company's current valuation is attractive by comparing it to its historical price performance and the valuation of similar companies. I also try to determine which of a company's bonds might offer the best combination of risk and reward within its capital structure. Given my conservative style, I try to avoid bonds with high default risks. Through painstaking research and analysis, I seek to uncover the best opportunities for the fund."

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended October 31, 2001

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 fund:

Security Valuation. Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Securities for which quotations are readily available are valued by a pricing service at their market values as determined by their most recent bid prices in the principal market (sales prices if the principal market is an exchange) in which such securities are normally traded. 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. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

Foreign Currency. The fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

Foreign denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements - continued

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Foreign Currency - continued

The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

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

Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. The fund may place a debt obligation on non-accrual status and reduce related interest income by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures, under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees of the fund. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectibility of interest is reasonably assured.

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. Distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class.

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

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements - continued

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.

Change in Accounting Principle. Effective November 1, 2001, the fund will adopt the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and will begin amortizing premium and discount on all debt securities, as required. This accounting principle change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to net investment income.

The cumulative effect of this accounting change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to accumulated net undistributed realized gain (loss).

2. Operating Policies.

Joint Trading Account. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the fund, 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 fund, 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 fund's investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value requirements stated above.

Restricted Securities. The fund may 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. Information regarding restricted securities is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

Loans and Other Direct Debt Instruments. The fund may invest in loans and loan participations, trade claims or other receivables. These investments may include standby financing commitments that obligate the fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. Loan participations involve a risk of insolvency of the lending bank or other financial intermediary. Information regarding loans and other direct debt

instruments is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Information regarding purchases and sales of securities is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee.

The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate of .45% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .13% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annual management fee rate was .58% of the fund's average net assets.

Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Service Plans for each class of shares. Each class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, separate Distribution and Service Fees, each of which is based on an annual percentage of each class' average net assets. In addition, FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund and providing shareholder support services. For the period, the Distribution and Service Fee rates and the total amounts paid to and retained by FDC were as follows.

FDC receives the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges levied on Class A, Class T, Class B, and Class C redemptions. These charges depend on the holding period. The deferred sales charges range from, 5% to 1% for Class B, 1% for Class C, and .25% for certain purchases of Class A and Class T shares.

Independent Auditors' Report

To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series II and Shareholders of Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund, (the Fund), a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II, including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2001, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2001, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles 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 and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund as of October 31, 2001, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

President's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

The three major benchmarks of U.S. stock market performance - the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM, Standard & Poor's 500SM Index and NASDAQ Composite® Index - recorded gains in October 2001, the first time since April that all three indexes had positive monthly returns. However, each still dwelled in double-digit negative territory for the year overall. Conversely, nearly every investment-grade bond category enjoyed a year-to-date gain of 10% or more.

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.

Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with your investments.

Best regards,

/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

Annual Report

Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund - Institutional Class

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate 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 class' dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the class' income as reflected in its yield to measure performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the total returns and dividends would have been lower.

n/a*

Cumulative total returns show Institutional Class' performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since the fund started on September 7, 1999. 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 Institutional Class' returns to the performance of the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index - a market value-weighted index of all domestic and yankee high-yield bonds, including deferred interest bonds and payment-in-kind securities. Issues included in the index have maturities of one year or more and have a credit rating lower than BBB-/Baa3, but are not in default. To measure how Institutional Class' performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the high current yield 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 388 mutual funds. These benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.

$10,000 Over Life of Fund



$10,000 Over Life of Fund: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity ® Advisor High Income Fund - Institutional Class on September 7, 1999, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by October 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $10,490 - a 4.90% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index did over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have been $9,741 - a 2.59% decrease.

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.

Dividends per share show the income paid by the class for a set period. The annual dividend rate is based on an average share price of $8.70 over the past one month, $8.94 over the past six months and $9.01 over the past one year. The 30-day annualized yield is a standard formula based on the yields of the securities in the fund, averaged over the past 30 days.

Market Recap

High-yield bonds ended a turbulent 12 months with a marginally positive return, as measured by the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index - a broad measure of high-yield market performance. The benchmark closed up slightly at 0.05% for the one-year period ending October 31, 2001. While that performance won't quite be remembered as stellar, the return looks almost gaudy compared to the U.S. stock market during the same time frame, as most equity indexes suffered double-digit losses during the past year. Overall, the returns from the high-yield market were held back by a default rate of approximately 9%. Telecommunications companies, the largest component of the Merrill Lynch benchmark, continued to be plagued by a lack of capital flowing into the sector and near industry-wide profit warnings. The cable-TV industry - the second-largest component of the Merrill Lynch index - also declined throughout the period, while the air transportation segment fell 24% during the third quarter of 2001, due almost entirely to the devastating events of September 11. On the positive side of the ledger, the overall high-yield market offered investors a yield of approximately 13% at the end of the period, nearly eight percentage points higher than the yield of 10-year Treasury notes.

An interview with Matthew Conti, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund

Q. Matt, how did the fund perform?

A. For the 12 months that ended October 31, 2001, the fund's Institutional Class shares returned 2.00%. The high-yield market, as measured by the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index, returned 0.05%, while the high current yield funds average tracked by Lipper Inc. fell 3.98%.

Q. What helped the fund perform better than its index and peers?

A. The fund outperformed its benchmark and peer group due to my reorientation of the portfolio after I took it over in February 2001. Specifically, I gave the fund a more diversified, higher-quality, income-focused structure. I increased investments in the health care, energy, financial, electric utility and retailing industries. I moved the fund away from its previously overweighted position in telecommunications investments which proved to be a timely strategy, as that sector markedly underperformed the rest of the high-yield market. Changing the fund's focus to bonds with higher credit ratings, cutting back the fund's stock investments and reducing its exposure to bonds of lower credit quality also proved fruitful, as did my divestiture of the fund's holdings in deferred payment securities. These are riskier bonds that do not pay any current income, issued by companies with limited or no cash flow. I preferred to invest in cash-pay securities, which do offer regular income payments and are more conservative in nature. This approach proved advantageous, as high-yield investors avoided risk and gravitated toward the more conservative side of the spectrum.

Q. How did you approach managing the fund after the terrorist attacks of September 11?

A. I maintained my overall strategy, and remained focused on securing high income and avoiding defaults. That said, I did take a look at some of the new opportunities that arose in the high-yield area. For instance, many airline bonds fell from investment-grade to junk-bond status in the wake of September's events. I looked for those airline companies I felt would survive in a difficult travel environment. As a result, I invested in Delta and AMR, the holding company for American Airlines, because I felt those companies had the best balance-sheet structures in the industry. I particularly focused on bonds secured by some of the companies' newer airplanes. I also reduced investments in hotels that were dependent upon air travel for their customers. Instead, I looked to invest in hotel and gaming stocks that drew customers who drove from more local areas, including Connecticut casino Mohegan Sun.

Q. What were some of the investments that performed well during the period? Which disappointed?

A. Among the positive performers were some of the fund's investments in the cable television and video industries. This is one sector I chose to overweight because the companies' cash flows tend to remain consistent within even the most difficult economic environments. Although this sector of the index lost ground during the period, the fund benefited from its focus on the stability of U.S. cable companies, rather than their speculative European counterparts that suffered losses during the period. Among the investments that performed well in this area were Century Communications (now owned by another top performer, Adelphia Communications) and EchoStar Communications. The events of September 11 created an even better scenario for these firms due to the "nesting effect," the tendency of more people to stay at home after such a tragedy. These cable companies enjoy a near monopoly and thus have been able to increase their rates. I'd also mention Rite Aid. This pharmacy retailer's new management team significantly reduced the company's debt, cleaned up its balance sheet and improved its cash flow. Nearly all of the fund's disappointments were very small positions in the fund, including two companies in the telecom sector. The first was Nextel, which suffered from taking on increasing debt amid doubts about the firm's ability to meet its future financing needs. The fund still owns the company's bonds, but at a reduced weighting. Microcell, a Canadian wireless company, struggled against the same factors, and was eliminated from the fund. Finally, Finova, a financial services company, was hit hard due to its exposure to the aircraft and resort industries.

Q. What's your outlook?

A. While defaults could continue to increase in the short term, most of the damage is likely behind us, in my view, allowing for better prospects eventually. Specifically, the market continues to weed out companies that will not survive: the firms that need money but cannot make or raise it. As these weaker companies fall by the wayside, the overall credit quality of the market should improve. Defaults look as if they may peak at some point in the middle of 2002, which should be a positive development, as would signs of an economic improvement. High-yield bonds currently offer extremely attractive yields within an environment of very low short-term interest rates relative to long-term yields. Typically, this is a positive backdrop for high-yield bonds.

Matt Conti on his research process:

"High-yield is a bond-picker's market. I spend most of my time trying to protect the fund from downside risk, looking to allow a bond's income to provide most of the return. The foundation of my investment process is fundamental company research. I look to develop a thorough understanding of each company through meetings with management, competitive analysis, financial models and an analysis of the company's capital structure. I use a full array of contacts to determine whether or not I want to pursue an investment in a particular company. These may include Fidelity's internal analysts, top- and middle-level company executives, rating agencies, political contacts, consultants, market experts and lawyers both within and outside of Fidelity. In addition, I intensively analyze Fidelity's proprietary research alongside the company's financial statements.

"Then, I aim to determine whether or not the company's current valuation is attractive by comparing it to its historical price performance and the valuation of similar companies. I also try to determine which of a company's bonds might offer the best combination of risk and reward within its capital structure. Given my conservative style, I try to avoid bonds with high default risks. Through painstaking research and analysis, I seek to uncover the best opportunities for the fund."

E For the period September 7, 1999 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 1999.

F Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the class. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed by the investment adviser or reductions from directed brokerage or other expense offset arrangements and do not represent the amount paid by the class during periods when reimbursements or reductions occur. Expense ratios before reductions for start-up periods may not be representative of longer-term operating periods. Expenses net of voluntary waivers reflects expenses after reimbursements by the investment adviser but prior to reductions from directed brokerage or other expense offset arrangements. Expenses net of all reductions represent the net expenses paid by the class.

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 fund:

Security Valuation. Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Securities for which quotations are readily available are valued by a pricing service at their market values as determined by their most recent bid prices in the principal market (sales prices if the principal market is an exchange) in which such securities are normally traded. 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. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

Foreign Currency. The fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

Foreign denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

Foreign Currency - continued

The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

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

Investment Income. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. The fund may place a debt obligation on non-accrual status and reduce related interest income by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures, under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees of the fund. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectibility of interest is reasonably assured.

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. Distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class.

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

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

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.

Change in Accounting Principle. Effective November 1, 2001, the fund will adopt the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and will begin amortizing premium and discount on all debt securities, as required. This accounting principle change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to net investment income.

The cumulative effect of this accounting change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding change to accumulated net undistributed realized gain (loss).

2. Operating Policies.

Joint Trading Account. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the fund, 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 fund, 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 fund's investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value requirements stated above.

Restricted Securities. The fund may 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. Information regarding restricted securities is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

Loans and Other Direct Debt Instruments. The fund may invest in loans and loan participations, trade claims or other receivables. These investments may include standby financing commitments that obligate the fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. Loan participations involve a risk of insolvency of the lending bank or other financial intermediary. Information regarding loans and other direct debt

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee.

The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate of .45% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .13% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annual management fee rate was .58% of the fund's average net assets.

Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Service Plans for each class of shares. Each class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, separate Distribution and Service Fees, each of which is based on an annual percentage of each class' average net assets. In addition, FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund and providing shareholder support services. For the period, the Distribution and Service Fee rates and the total amounts paid to and retained by FDC were as follows.

The deferred sales charges range from, 5% to 1% for Class B, 1% for Class C, and .25% for certain purchases of Class A and Class T shares.

The Central Funds are open-end investment companies available only to investment companies and other accounts managed by FMR and its affiliates. The Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and do not pay a management fee. Income distributions earned by the fund are recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements and totaled $1,148 for the period.

The fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the line of credit. During the period there were no borrowings on this line of credit.

6. Expense Reductions.

Independent Auditors' Report

To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series II and Shareholders of Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund, (the Fund), a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II, including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2001, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2001, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles 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 and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Advisor High Income Fund as of October 31, 2001, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

President's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

The three major benchmarks of U.S. stock market performance - the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM, Standard & Poor's 500SM Index and NASDAQ Composite® Index - recorded gains in October 2001, the first time since April that all three indexes had positive monthly returns. However, each still dwelled in double-digit negative territory for the year overall. Conversely, nearly every investment-grade bond category enjoyed a year-to-date gain of 10% or more.

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.

Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with your investments.

Best regards,

/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

Annual Report

Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund - Class A

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate 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 class' dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the class' income as reflected in its yield to measure performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the total returns and dividends would have been lower.

You can compare Class A's returns to the performance of the Credit Suisse First Boston Leveraged Loan Index Plus - a market value-weighted index designed to represent the investable universe of the U.S. dollar denominated leveraged loan market. This benchmark includes reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.

$10,000 Over Life of Fund: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity® Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund - Class A on August 16, 2000, when the fund started, and the current 3.75% sales charge was paid. As the chart shows, by October 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $10,108 - a 1.08% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the CSFB Leveraged Loan Index Plus did over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $10,157 - a 1.57% 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.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

The leveraged loan market, as measured by the CSFB Leveraged Loan Index Plus, generated a 0.94% return during the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2001. Leveraged loans benefited from the combination of seniority, security and floating rates, which helped reduce their price volatility as the capital markets witnessed deteriorating credit quality and plummeting interest rates. Moody's Investors Service's trailing 12-month default rate - a measure of the percentage of companies unable to service their debt - stood at 9.5% at the end of the period, up from 8.9% six months ago and 6.2% a year earlier. The demand for leveraged loans continued to outpace supply, adding a level of support to the market. The supply of new issues declined 26.5% year-over-year. That was due in large part to a slowdown in merger and acquisition activity and heightened investor concerns surrounding the fundamentals of the telecommunications sector. However, demand strengthened as investors sought refuge from the turbulent stock and high-yield bond markets. At the end of the period, the 90-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) was approximately 2.2%, suggesting a BB-rated bank debt yield of around 6.0%. Because the coupons on leveraged loans are reset quarterly, the floating rate feature helped limit the effects of interest-rate fluctuations.

An interview with Christine McConnell, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Christine?

A. For the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2001, the fund's Class A, Class T, Class B and Class C shares provided total returns of 4.08%, 3.90%, 3.42% and 3.42%, respectively. During the same time frame, the fund's benchmark, the CSFB Leveraged Loan Index Plus, returned 0.94%.

Q. Why did the fund outpace its benchmark so significantly during the past 12 months?

A. The fund benefited from its defensive positioning. When the period began in late 2000, I saw definite signs of an approaching economic downturn. Consequently, I looked to add investments to the fund that appeared more likely to hold up in the face of a weakening economy. These securities generally shared a number of characteristics, such as having a strong collateral backing, belonging to defensive industries that generally have tended to perform well during bad economic times, and issuance by companies with solid business plans and relatively large market capitalizations. Investing in such issuers helped add stability to the fund during an uncertain market environment. The fund also focused on diversification among both issuers and industries.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What were some of the defensive industries you invested in during the period?

A. As of October 31, 2001, the fund's second-largest area of investment was in the cable-TV sector, which I saw as an attractive opportunity amid recent economic weakness. Cable companies are perceived to offer strong, liquid collateral protection and a history of generating stable earnings and consistent cash flows. While some of the fund's cable holdings performed well during the period, the fund's largest position, Charter Communications, came under increased pressure and performed worse than expected. Investors were concerned about the company's pending management changes as well as the expectation of a general slowing in the growth of cable advertising revenues. Beyond cable, the fund also was well represented in the asset-intensive paper and chemical sectors. We looked for businesses that had strong asset coverage despite lower earnings related to an economic downturn. Other defensive industries we looked to during the past 12 months included food and tobacco and electric utilities. Food and tobacco businesses benefited from their solid cash flows despite a slow economy, while utilities benefited from the presence of strong assets backing their debt. Pacific Gas & Electric was one such company that helped fund returns. The California-based company continued to successfully restructure after last year's state energy crisis.

Q. Telecommunications companies are active in the leveraged loan market. Did you invest in this area?

A. Yes, I did. But consistent with the fund's defensive positioning, I emphasized those telecom companies that appeared to be best placed for success. In particular, these were wireless communications businesses, such as Triton PCS, the fund's third-largest holding and a strong performer during the past 12 months. In my opinion, wireless businesses offered the key benefit of owning extremely valuable spectrum rights that, if liquidated, can be used to pay its bank debt. In general, we favored wireless companies over other types of telecoms, such as broadband, which has suffered from overbuilding and lower-than-expected consumer demand.

Q. What do you see ahead, Christine?

A. In the short term, I envision continued economic weakness, with corporate profits continuing to slow during the next quarter or two. The fallout from the recent September 11 attacks only added uncertainty to an already uncertain market. Yet there are some positive signs for the economy as well. The Federal Reserve Board has actively cut interest rates, energy prices have eased and the government is considering a large economic stimulus package. While these efforts may bear fruit down the road, in my opinion the prudent path for the foreseeable future is to continue to manage the fund defensively and focus on securities offering good collateral protection. I believe the current market turmoil has created attractive investment values at reasonable levels of risk. I plan to continue searching for the best leveraged-loan opportunities available while keeping an eye on the economic situation and making any adjustments as needed.

Christine McConnell on why leveraged loans offer potential benefits during an economic slowdown:

"One of the attractive features of investing in leveraged loans is that the loans are senior. This means that if an issuer encounters difficulty, holders of senior loans get first claim on their assets, before other bond and stockholders do. This is an especially beneficial characteristic during a time when companies are experiencing sharply slower earnings. It adds a measure of stability to leveraged loans that's often unavailable with other types of investments.

"Also, leveraged loans, unlike other types of fixed-income securities, are less sensitive to changes in interest rates. That's important in a year such as 2001, during which the Fed has already cut interest rates nine times. As floating rate debt, leveraged loans see their interest rate reset every quarter to match the existing 90-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), plus a premium ranging from 2.5% to 3.75%.

"Although there is certainly the risk that interest rates will go down further from current low levels, the historic average for LIBOR is significantly higher than the current rate. At some point, I'd expect we'd deviate back to that historical level. Unlike fixed-rate investments, variable-rate investments perform well in an increasing rate environment, since the interest rate offered is constantly recalculated to reflect new conditions."

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended October 31, 2001

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 fund:

Security Valuation. Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Securities for which quotations are readily available are valued at their market values as determined by their most recent bid prices in the principal market (sales prices if the principal market is an exchange) in which such securities are normally traded. 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. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

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

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Investment Income. Interest income,which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is accrued as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. The fund may place a debt obligation on non-accrual status and reduce related interest income by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures, under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees of the fund. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectibility of interest is reasonably assured.

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. Distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for market discount, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

Short-Term Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held in the fund less than 60 days are subject to a short-term trading fee equal to 1.00% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. The fee, which is retained by the fund, is accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.

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 SEC), the fund, 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.

2. Operating Policies - continued

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 fund, 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 fund's investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value requirements stated above.

Restricted Securities. The fund may 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. Information regarding restricted securities is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

Loans and Other Direct Debt Instruments. The fund may invest in loans and loan participations, trade claims or other receivables. These investments may include standby financing commitments that obligate the fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. Loan participations involve a risk of insolvency of the lending bank or other financial intermediary. The fund may be contractually obligated to receive approval from the agent bank and/or borrower prior to the sale of these investments.

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Purchases and sales of securities (including principal repayments of floating rate loans), is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee.

The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate of .55% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .13% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annual management fee rate was .68% of the fund's average net assets.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

The three major benchmarks of U.S. stock market performance - the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM, Standard & Poor's 500SM Index and NASDAQ Composite® Index - recorded gains in October 2001, the first time since April that all three indexes had positive monthly returns. However, each still dwelled in double-digit negative territory for the year overall. Conversely, nearly every investment-grade bond category enjoyed a year-to-date gain of 10% or more.

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.

Remember to contact your investment professional if you need help with your investments.

Best regards,

/s/Edward C. Johnson 3d

Annual Report

Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund - Institutional Class

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate 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 class' dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at the class' income as reflected in its yield to measure performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the total returns and dividends would have been lower.

Cumulative total returns show Institutional Class' performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since the fund started on August 16, 2000. 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 Institutional Class' returns to the performance of the Credit Suisse First Boston Leveraged Loan Index Plus - a market value-weighted index designed to represent the investable universe of the U.S. dollar denominated leveraged loan market. This benchmark includes reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.

$10,000 Over Life of Fund



$10,000 Over Life of Fund: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity® Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund - Institutional Class on August 16, 2000, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by October 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $10,509 - a 5.09% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the CSFB Leveraged Loan Index Plus did over the same period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 would have grown to $10,157 - a 1.57% 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.

Dividends per share show the income paid by the class for a set period. The annual dividend rate is based on an average share price of $9.70 over the past one month, $9.83 over the past six months and $9.87 over the past one year. The 30-day annualized yield is a standard formula based on the yields of the securities 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.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

The leveraged loan market, as measured by the CSFB Leveraged Loan Index Plus, generated a 0.94% return during the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2001. Leveraged loans benefited from the combination of seniority, security and floating rates, which helped reduce their price volatility as the capital markets witnessed deteriorating credit quality and plummeting interest rates. Moody's Investors Service's trailing 12-month default rate - a measure of the percentage of companies unable to service their debt - stood at 9.5% at the end of the period, up from 8.9% six months ago and 6.2% a year earlier. The demand for leveraged loans continued to outpace supply, adding a level of support to the market. The supply of new issues declined 26.5% year-over-year. That was due in large part to a slowdown in merger and acquisition activity and heightened investor concerns surrounding the fundamentals of the telecommunications sector. However, demand strengthened as investors sought refuge from the turbulent stock and high-yield bond markets. At the end of the period, the 90-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) was approximately 2.2%, suggesting a BB-rated bank debt yield of around 6.0%. Because the coupons on leveraged loans are reset quarterly, the floating rate feature helped limit the effects of interest-rate fluctuations.

An interview with Christine McConnell, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Christine?

A. For the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2001, the fund's Institutional Class shares provided a total return of 4.11%. The fund's benchmark, the CSFB Leveraged Loan Index Plus, returned 0.94%.

Q. Why did the fund outpace its benchmark so significantly during the past 12 months?

A. The fund benefited from its defensive positioning. When the period began in late 2000, I saw definite signs of an approaching economic downturn. Consequently, I looked to add investments to the fund that appeared more likely to hold up in the face of a weakening economy. These securities generally shared a number of characteristics, such as having a strong collateral backing, belonging to defensive industries that generally have tended to perform well during bad economic times, and issuance by companies with solid business plans and relatively large market capitalizations. Investing in such issuers helped add stability to the fund during an uncertain market environment. The fund also focused on diversification among both issuers and industries.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What were some of the defensive industries you invested in during the period?

A. As of October 31, 2001, the fund's second-largest area of investment was in the cable-TV sector, which I saw as an attractive opportunity amid recent economic weakness. Cable companies are perceived to offer strong, liquid collateral protection and a history of generating stable earnings and consistent cash flows. While some of the fund's cable holdings performed well during the period, the fund's largest position, Charter Communications, came under increased pressure and performed worse than expected. Investors were concerned about the company's pending management changes as well as the expectation of a general slowing in the growth of cable advertising revenues. Beyond cable, the fund also was well represented in the asset-intensive paper and chemical sectors. We looked for businesses that had strong asset coverage despite lower earnings related to an economic downturn. Other defensive industries we looked to during the past 12 months included food and tobacco and electric utilities. Food and tobacco businesses benefited from their solid cash flows despite a slow economy, while utilities benefited from the presence of strong assets backing their debt. Pacific Gas & Electric was one such company that helped fund returns. The California-based company continued to successfully restructure after last year's state energy crisis.

Q. Telecommunications companies are active in the leveraged loan market. Did you invest in this area?

A. Yes, I did. But consistent with the fund's defensive positioning, I emphasized those telecom companies that appeared to be best placed for success. In particular, these were wireless communications businesses, such as Triton PCS, the fund's third-largest holding and a strong performer during the past 12 months. In my opinion, wireless businesses offered the key benefit of owning extremely valuable spectrum rights that, if liquidated, can be used to pay its bank debt. In general, we favored wireless companies over other types of telecoms, such as broadband, which has suffered from overbuilding and lower-than-expected consumer demand.

Q. What do you see ahead, Christine?

A. In the short term, I envision continued economic weakness, with corporate profits continuing to slow during the next quarter or two. The fallout from the recent September 11 attacks only added uncertainty to an already uncertain market. Yet there are some positive signs for the economy as well. The Federal Reserve Board has actively cut interest rates, energy prices have eased and the government is considering a large economic stimulus package. While these efforts may bear fruit down the road, in my opinion the prudent path for the foreseeable future is to continue to manage the fund defensively and focus on securities offering good collateral protection. I believe the current market turmoil has created attractive investment values at reasonable levels of risk. I plan to continue searching for the best leveraged-loan opportunities available while keeping an eye on the economic situation and making any adjustments as needed.

Christine McConnell on why leveraged loans offer potential benefits during an economic slowdown:

"One of the attractive features of investing in leveraged loans is that the loans are senior. This means that if an issuer encounters difficulty, holders of senior loans get first claim on their assets, before other bond and stockholders do. This is an especially beneficial characteristic during a time when companies are experiencing sharply slower earnings. It adds a measure of stability to leveraged loans that's often unavailable with other types of investments.

"Also, leveraged loans, unlike other types of fixed-income securities, are less sensitive to changes in interest rates. That's important in a year such as 2001, during which the Fed has already cut interest rates nine times. As floating rate debt, leveraged loans see their interest rate reset every quarter to match the existing 90-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), plus a premium ranging from 2.5% to 3.75%.

"Although there is certainly the risk that interest rates will go down further from current low levels, the historic average for LIBOR is significantly higher than the current rate. At some point, I'd expect we'd deviate back to that historical level. Unlike fixed-rate investments, variable-rate investments perform well in an increasing rate environment, since the interest rate offered is constantly recalculated to reflect new conditions."

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended October 31, 2001

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The fund offers Class A, Class T, Class B, Class C, and Institutional Class shares, each of which has equal rights as to assets and voting privileges. Each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters that affect that class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares after a holding period of seven years from the initial date of purchase. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 fund:

Security Valuation. Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Securities for which quotations are readily available are valued at their market values as determined by their most recent bid prices in the principal market (sales prices if the principal market is an exchange) in which such securities are normally traded. 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. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

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

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements - continued

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Investment Income. Interest income,which includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is accrued as earned. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain. The fund may place a debt obligation on non-accrual status and reduce related interest income by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures, under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees of the fund. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectibility of interest is reasonably assured.

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. Distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for market discount, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period.

Short-Term Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held in the fund less than 60 days are subject to a short-term trading fee equal to 1.00% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. The fee, which is retained by the fund, is accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.

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 SEC), the fund, 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.

2. Operating Policies - continued

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 fund, 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 fund's investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value requirements stated above.

Restricted Securities. The fund may 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. Information regarding restricted securities is included under the captions "Legend" and/or "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

Loans and Other Direct Debt Instruments. The fund may invest in loans and loan participations, trade claims or other receivables. These investments may include standby financing commitments that obligate the fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. Loan participations involve a risk of insolvency of the lending bank or other financial intermediary. The fund may be contractually obligated to receive approval from the agent bank and/or borrower prior to the sale of these investments.

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Purchases and sales of securities (including principal repayments of floating rate loans), is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of the fund's Schedule of Investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the fund with investment management related services for which the fund pays a monthly management fee.

The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate of .55% of the fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .13% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annual management fee rate was .68% of the fund's average net assets.

Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate Distribution and Service Plans for each class of shares. Each class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a separate Distribution and Service Fee based on an annual percentage of each class' average net assets. In addition FDC may pay financial intermediaries for selling shares of the fund and providing shareholder support services.

Independent Auditors' Report

To the Trustees of Fidelity Advisor Series II and Shareholders of Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund, (the Fund), a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II, including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2001, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets, and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2001, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and agent banks. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles 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 and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Advisor Floating Rate High Income Fund as of October 31, 2001, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets, and its financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
