President's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

Some welcome news on the economic front inspired a stock market rally during the final quarter of 2001. Nonetheless, most major equity indexes still finished the year with negative returns. For investment-grade bonds, the situation was reversed. Their strong performance through the first three-quarters of 2001 was somewhat tamed late in the year as investors became more enthused about the prospects for growth in 2002.

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 Strategic 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. 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, and reflect Class T shares' 0.25% 12b-1 fee. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the past five year and life of fund 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 since the fund started on October 31, 1994. 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 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. Additionally, you can also compare the Institutional Class' returns to the performance of the Fidelity Strategic Income Composite Index - a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index combines the total returns of the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global, the Lehman Brothers® Government Bond Index, the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index and the Salomon Smith Barney® Non-U.S. Group of 7 Index-Equally Weighted Unhedged, weighted according to the fund's neutral mix.** To measure how Institutional Class' performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the multi-sector income 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 122 mutual funds. The benchmarks listed in the table above 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 Strategic Income Fund - Institutional Class on October 31, 1994, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by December 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $18,287 - an 82.87% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Fidelity Strategic Income Composite Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $16,940 - a 69.40% increase. You can also look at how the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $15,913 - a 59.13% increase.

The $10,000 table and the fund's returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

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 $10.21 over the past one month, $10.23 over the past six months, and $10.30 over the past one year, you can compare the class' income over these three periods. The past one month dividends per share include additional nonrecurring distributions required by federal tax regulations. These distributions may not be reflected in future monthly dividends. 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 to compare funds from different companies on an equal basis.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

It was a challenging year for foreign developed-nation bonds, as the Salomon Smith Barney® Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index - a market-value-weighted index designed to represent the performance of 16 world government bond markets, excluding the United States - declined 3.54% for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2001. A slowing economy and eventual recession in the United States, exacerbated by the September 11 terrorist attacks, contributed to slower economic growth worldwide. The continued strength of the U.S. dollar also muted international bond performance on a relative basis. In emerging markets, every country but one in the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global had a positive return, but the benchmark gained only 1.36% due to a host of problems in Argentina, one of the index's largest components on average during the year. Plagued by its long-running economic recession, a potential currency devaluation and rising debt obligations, Argentina's president resigned and the government was forced into default. On a more positive note, high-yield debt rebounded in the fourth quarter of 2001, posting its best quarterly performance since the second quarter of 1995. Health care and energy were among the best-performing high-yield sectors. Meanwhile, U.S. government bonds also had a solid 12 months, as the Lehman Brothers® Government Bond Index - a benchmark for U.S. government securities with maturities of one year or more - advanced 7.23%.

An interview with William Eigen, Lead Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Bill?

A. The fund performed well on both an absolute and relative basis. For the 12 months ending December 31, 2001, the fund's Institutional Class shares returned 6.67%. The Fidelity Strategic Income Composite Index returned 3.68%, while the multi-sector income funds average, as tracked by Lipper Inc., returned 3.64% for the same time period.

Q. How did the fund achieve its outperformance of the index and its peer group average?

A. There were two factors that led to the outperformance. First, three out of the fund's four subportfolios outperformed their respective benchmarks. Second, we received an additional benefit from small asset allocation shifts made in the second half of the year, which I discuss later in the report.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What factors influenced performance in the U.S. government bond subportfolio?

A. This subportfolio - managed by Kevin Grant - acts as the liquidity "anchor" for the fund. It was invested in high-quality U.S. government securities throughout the year, which posted solid returns. However, it did modestly underperform its benchmark. Nearly all of the underperformance can be accounted for by cash held in the subportfolio and extreme liquidity-driven flows into and out of the portfolio, which had the effect of shortening duration - or sensitivity to interest rate movements - during a period when rates fell and returns surged.

Q. How did the high-yield subportfolio achieve its outperformance?

A. The high-yield component of the fund - managed by Mark Notkin - was the largest contributor to performance, driven in large part by favorable sector and security selection. In particular, the fund's lack of exposure to some of the index's biggest detractors in telecommunications and technology proved beneficial. The subportfolio benefited from its exposure to several top performers. Voice-Stream, a national wireless operator, added value as Deutsche Telecom followed through on its buyout offer. Securities of Telemundo Communications Group, a Spanish-language television network, surged after its purchase by General Electric was announced. EchoStar, a provider of direct broadcast satellite services, benefited as a result of increased subscribers, higher revenues and improved gross margins. Performance was dampened somewhat by digital wireless provider Nextel Communications, which declined along with the market, and by SpectraSite Holdings, a wireless communications tower operator, which suffered as investor attitudes toward highly levered companies waned.

Q. What about the non-U.S. developed country subportfolio?

A. Although it posted a negative return for the one-year period, the subportfolio - managed by Ian Spreadbury - outperformed its benchmark. The bulk of the subportfolio was invested in Germany and the United Kingdom. The continued evolution and broader acceptance of the euro sparked a bit of a rally in these markets relative to the U.S. dollar during the fourth quarter, which added some value. We also benefited from strong exposure to high-quality government and corporate issues, which performed well in a rather stagnant economic environment. Ian maintained an underweighted position in Japan as its economy remained firmly in recession and interest rates stayed at low levels. In Canada, Ian held a neutral position and invested primarily in government issues.

Q. How did the emerging-markets debt subportfolio outperform its benchmark?

A. The subportfolio - managed by John Carlson - contributed to the fund's performance largely as a result of positive country selection. John's underweighted position in Argentina was a key contributor as the country's political and economic woes escalated during the year, culminating in a change in leadership and debt default in the fourth quarter. Favorable positioning in Russia also added to performance as it continued to implement structural reforms, build up international reserves and move closer to a resolution on Soviet-era debt. The country further benefited from increased oil exports as it ramped up production and increased market share. The subportfolio had little to no exposure in South Korea, Malaysia and China, which detracted from performance. These investment-grade securities benefited from strong demand as the interest rates on U.S. Treasuries fell and investors sought out high-quality credits.

Annual Report

Q. What was your investment strategy as lead manager?

A. In terms of asset allocation between the subportfolios, I was fairly conservative through the late summer. I kept high-yield at a modest underweight, while slightly overweighting U.S. government bonds and developed-markets securities. I also kept emerging markets at an underweight late in the year since I was concerned about the situation in Argentina and possible carry-over effects to other markets. Another successful strategy was overweighting the developed-markets subportfolio in late summer - just as the U.S. dollar's strength against the yen and euro was about to correct - after which I brought the subportfolio to a neutral weighting. In addition, I began overweighting high-yield bonds at the expense of U.S. government securities in late September. This boosted our performance since high-yield prices firmed and market activity picked up toward the end of the year.

Q. Bill, what's your outlook?

A. I'm constructive on the high-yield market and continued to overweight that subportfolio as the period ended. I think fundamentals in this market are showing signs of improving - a trend that could hasten if domestic economic growth picks up from here. By contrast, I've underweighted the U.S. government subportfolio relative to the benchmark since I think the worst of the economic contraction is probably behind us, and the sector's outperformance during the past two years seems poised to change. I've also underweighted the non-U.S. developed country subportfolio. Despite the continued global economic slump, which could lead to rising bond prices abroad, any positive local market returns could be reduced by the persistent strength of the U.S. dollar. Lastly, I've underweighted the emerging-markets subportfolio. Given the rather extreme situation in Argentina and uncertainties unfolding in Latin America, I'm content to sit on the sidelines and wait for tangible signs of improvement in fundamentals and valuations prior to building positions.

Bill Eigen talks about diversification and the Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income fund:

"Many investors consider their portfolios well-diversified if they allocate between equity funds with different risk characteristics and a fixed-income fund - in most cases a U.S. government fund or investment-grade bond fund. While I believe that is a reasonable investment strategy, I think there is an additional risk to consider. Traditional fixed-income funds are generally concentrated in only one area of the market. Like equities, different fixed-income asset classes offer widely varying risk/return characteristics. I think the diversification offered within Advisor Strategic Income takes advantage of all aspects of the fixed-income markets - including emerging markets, high yield, non-U.S. developed markets and U.S. government securities.

"The benefit of this type of diversification is that if one sector of the fund is experiencing negative returns, it could be offset by another sector that is performing well. The end result is a portfolio that provides competitive returns over time within a controlled volatility framework. The historical returns of the fund illustrate this concept well.

"My goal, as the lead manager, is to attempt to provide investors with as much exposure to positive absolute returns as possible. I plan to minimize underperforming assets and maximize those assets performing well by continually monitoring and adjusting the fund's investment allocations among the subportfolios. It is my belief that the diversification offered by the fund works in the best interest of investors."

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended December 31, 2001

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor Strategic 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 (sales prices if the principal market is an exchange) in the principal market in which such securities are normally traded. Securities (including restricted securities) for which market quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or 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.

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements - continued

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Foreign Currency - continued

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.

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 U.S. federal income taxes to the extent that it distributes all of its taxable income for its fiscal year. The fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income and gains on investments which are accrued based upon the fund's understanding of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests. Foreign governments may also impose taxes on other payments or transactions with respect to foreign securities. The fund accrues such taxes as applicable. The Schedule of Investments includes information regarding income taxes 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, 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.

Annual Report

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Distributions to Shareholders - continued

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 options transactions, foreign currency transactions, market discount, non-taxable dividends, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

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

As of December 31, 2001, undistributed net income and accumulated loss on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income

$ 150,806

Capital loss carryforward

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 January 1, 2001, the fund adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium and discount on all debt securities, as required. The cumulative effect of this accounting change had no impact on total net assets of the fund, but resulted in a $283,686 decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding decrease to accumulated net undistributed realized gain (loss), based on securities held by the fund on January 1, 2001.

The effect of this change during the period, was to increase net investment income by $119,230; decrease net unrealized appreciation/depreciation by $98,899; and decrease net realized gain (loss) by $20,331. The Statement of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights for prior periods have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.

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 funds, or to the Joint Trading Account, at a custodian bank. The securities are marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). FMR, the 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.

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. The payables and receivables associated with the purchases and sales of delayed delivery securities having the same coupon, settlement date and broker are offset. Delayed delivery or when-issued securities that have been purchased from and sold to different brokers are reflected as both payables and receivables in the fund's Statements of Assets and Liabilities under the caption "Delayed delivery." 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.

Options. The fund may use options to manage its exposure to the bond market and to fluctuations in interest rates. Writing puts and buying calls tend to increase the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument. Buying puts and writing calls tend to decrease the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument, or hedge other fund investments. The underlying face amount at value of any open options at period end is shown in the Schedule of Investments under the caption "Purchased Options." This amount reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying instrument at period end. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the underlying instruments, if there is an illiquid secondary market for the

contracts, or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms. Gains and losses are realized upon the expiration or closing of the options. Realized gains (losses) on purchased options are included in realized gains (losses) on investment securities.

Exchange-traded options are valued using the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale, the last offering price. Options traded over-the-counter are valued using dealer-supplied valuations.

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 stand by 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.

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.

Through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the fund's custody expenses by $7,257.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund, (the Fund), a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (the Trust), including the portfolio of investments, as of December 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 December 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 Strategic Income Fund as of December 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:

Some welcome news on the economic front inspired a stock market rally during the final quarter of 2001. Nonetheless, most major equity indexes still finished the year with negative returns. For investment-grade bonds, the situation was reversed. Their strong performance through the first three-quarters of 2001 was somewhat tamed late in the year as investors became more enthused about the prospects for growth in 2002.

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 Strategic 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 that is reflected in returns after September 3, 1996. Returns prior to that date are those of Class T, and reflect Class T shares' 0.25% 12b-1 fee. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the past five year and life of fund total returns would have been lower.

Cumulative total returns show Class A's performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or since the fund started on October 31, 1994. 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 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. Additionally you can also compare Class A's returns to those of the Fidelity Strategic Income Composite Index - a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index combines the total returns of the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global, the Lehman Brothers® Government Bond Index, the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index and the Salomon Smith Barney® Non-U.S. Group of 7 Index-Equally Weighted Unhedged, weighted according to the fund's neutral mix.** To measure how Class A's performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the multi-sector income 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 122 mutual funds. The benchmarks listed in the table above 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 Strategic Income Fund - Class A on October 31, 1994, when the fund started, and the current 4.75% sales charge was paid. As the chart shows, by December 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $17,212 - a 72.12% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Fidelity Strategic Income Composite Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $16,940 - a 69.40% increase. You can also look at how the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $15,913 - a 59.13% increase.

The $10,000 table and the fund's returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

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 $10.15 over the past one month, $10.17 over the past six months and $10.25 over the past one year, you can compare the class' income over these three periods. The past one month dividends per share include additional nonrecurring distributions required by federal tax regulations. These distributions may not be reflected in future monthly dividends. 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 to 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 4.75% sales charge.

$10,000 Over Life of Fund



$10,000 Over Life of Fund: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund - Class B on October 31, 1994, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by December 31, 2001, the value of the investment would have grown to $17,205 - a 72.05% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Fidelity Strategic Income Composite Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $16,940 - a 69.40% increase. You can also look at how the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $15,913 - a 59.13% increase.

The $10,000 table and the fund's returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares.

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

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 $10.17 over the past one month, $10.19 over the past six months, and $10.26 over the past one year, you can compare the class' income over these three periods. The past one month dividends per share include additional nonrecurring distributions required by federal tax regulations. These distributions may not be reflected in future monthly dividends. 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 to 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.

Annual Report

Fidelity Advisor Strategic 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 that is reflected in returns after November 3, 1997. Returns prior to November 3, 1997 are those of Class B shares and reflect Class B shares' 0.90% 12b-1 fee (1.00% prior to January 1, 1996). If Class C shares 12b-1 fee had been reflected, returns between January 1, 1996 and November 3, 1997 would have been lower. Class C shares' contingent deferred sales charge included in the past one year, five year, and life of fund total return figures are 1%, 0% and 0%, respectively. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain class expenses, the past five year and life of fund total returns would have been lower.

Cumulative total returns show Class C's performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year, five years or since the fund started on October 31, 1994. 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 C's returns to those 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. Additionally you can also compare Class C's returns to those of the Fidelity Strategic Income Composite Index - a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index combines the total returns of the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global, the Lehman Brothers Government Bond Index, the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index and the Salomon Smith Barney Non-U.S. Group of 7 Index-Equally Weighted Unhedged, weighted according to the fund's neutral mix.** To measure how Class C's performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the multi-sector income 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 122 mutual funds. The benchmarks listed in the table above include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude the effect of sales charges.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

It was a challenging year for foreign developed-nation bonds, as the Salomon Smith Barney® Non-U.S. Dollar World Government Bond Index - a market-value-weighted index designed to represent the performance of 16 world government bond markets, excluding the United States - declined 3.54% for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2001. A slowing economy and eventual recession in the United States, exacerbated by the September 11 terrorist attacks, contributed to slower economic growth worldwide. The continued strength of the U.S. dollar also muted international bond performance on a relative basis. In emerging markets, every country but one in the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global had a positive return, but the benchmark gained only 1.36% due to a host of problems in Argentina, one of the index's largest components on average during the year. Plagued by its long-running economic recession, a potential currency devaluation and rising debt obligations, Argentina's president resigned and the government was forced into default. On a more positive note, high-yield debt rebounded in the fourth quarter of 2001, posting its best quarterly performance since the second quarter of 1995. Health care and energy were among the best-performing high-yield sectors. Meanwhile, U.S. government bonds also had a solid 12 months, as the Lehman Brothers® Government Bond Index - a benchmark for U.S. government securities with maturities of one year or more - advanced 7.23%.

An interview with William Eigen, Lead Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund

Q. How did the fund perform, Bill?

A. The fund performed well on both an absolute and relative basis. For the 12 months ending December 31, 2001, the fund's Institutional Class shares returned 6.67%. The Fidelity Strategic Income Composite Index returned 3.68%, while the multi-sector income funds average, as tracked by Lipper Inc., returned 3.64% for the same time period.

Q. How did the fund achieve its outperformance of the index and its peer group average?

A. There were two factors that led to the outperformance. First, three out of the fund's four subportfolios outperformed their respective benchmarks. Second, we received an additional benefit from small asset allocation shifts made in the second half of the year, which I discuss later in the report.

Annual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. What factors influenced performance in the U.S. government bond subportfolio?

A. This subportfolio - managed by Kevin Grant - acts as the liquidity "anchor" for the fund. It was invested in high-quality U.S. government securities throughout the year, which posted solid returns. However, it did modestly underperform its benchmark. Nearly all of the underperformance can be accounted for by cash held in the subportfolio and extreme liquidity-driven flows into and out of the portfolio, which had the effect of shortening duration - or sensitivity to interest rate movements - during a period when rates fell and returns surged.

Q. How did the high-yield subportfolio achieve its outperformance?

A. The high-yield component of the fund - managed by Mark Notkin - was the largest contributor to performance, driven in large part by favorable sector and security selection. In particular, the fund's lack of exposure to some of the index's biggest detractors in telecommunications and technology proved beneficial. The subportfolio benefited from its exposure to several top performers. Voice-Stream, a national wireless operator, added value as Deutsche Telecom followed through on its buyout offer. Securities of Telemundo Communications Group, a Spanish-language television network, surged after its purchase by General Electric was announced. EchoStar, a provider of direct broadcast satellite services, benefited as a result of increased subscribers, higher revenues and improved gross margins. Performance was dampened somewhat by digital wireless provider Nextel Communications, which declined along with the market, and by SpectraSite Holdings, a wireless communications tower operator, which suffered as investor attitudes toward highly levered companies waned.

Q. What about the non-U.S. developed country subportfolio?

A. Although it posted a negative return for the one-year period, the subportfolio - managed by Ian Spreadbury - outperformed its benchmark. The bulk of the subportfolio was invested in Germany and the United Kingdom. The continued evolution and broader acceptance of the euro sparked a bit of a rally in these markets relative to the U.S. dollar during the fourth quarter, which added some value. We also benefited from strong exposure to high-quality government and corporate issues, which performed well in a rather stagnant economic environment. Ian maintained an underweighted position in Japan as its economy remained firmly in recession and interest rates stayed at low levels. In Canada, Ian held a neutral position and invested primarily in government issues.

Q. How did the emerging-markets debt subportfolio outperform its benchmark?

A. The subportfolio - managed by John Carlson - contributed to the fund's performance largely as a result of positive country selection. John's underweighted position in Argentina was a key contributor as the country's political and economic woes escalated during the year, culminating in a change in leadership and debt default in the fourth quarter. Favorable positioning in Russia also added to performance as it continued to implement structural reforms, build up international reserves and move closer to a resolution on Soviet-era debt. The country further benefited from increased oil exports as it ramped up production and increased market share. The subportfolio had little to no exposure in South Korea, Malaysia and China, which detracted from performance. These investment-grade securities benefited from strong demand as the interest rates on U.S. Treasuries fell and investors sought out high-quality credits.

Annual Report

Q. What was your investment strategy as lead manager?

A. In terms of asset allocation between the subportfolios, I was fairly conservative through the late summer. I kept high-yield at a modest underweight, while slightly overweighting U.S. government bonds and developed-markets securities. I also kept emerging markets at an underweight late in the year since I was concerned about the situation in Argentina and possible carry-over effects to other markets. Another successful strategy was overweighting the developed-markets subportfolio in late summer - just as the U.S. dollar's strength against the yen and euro was about to correct - after which I brought the subportfolio to a neutral weighting. In addition, I began overweighting high-yield bonds at the expense of U.S. government securities in late September. This boosted our performance since high-yield prices firmed and market activity picked up toward the end of the year.

Q. Bill, what's your outlook?

A. I'm constructive on the high-yield market and continued to overweight that subportfolio as the period ended. I think fundamentals in this market are showing signs of improving - a trend that could hasten if domestic economic growth picks up from here. By contrast, I've underweighted the U.S. government subportfolio relative to the benchmark since I think the worst of the economic contraction is probably behind us, and the sector's outperformance during the past two years seems poised to change. I've also underweighted the non-U.S. developed country subportfolio. Despite the continued global economic slump, which could lead to rising bond prices abroad, any positive local market returns could be reduced by the persistent strength of the U.S. dollar. Lastly, I've underweighted the emerging-markets subportfolio. Given the rather extreme situation in Argentina and uncertainties unfolding in Latin America, I'm content to sit on the sidelines and wait for tangible signs of improvement in fundamentals and valuations prior to building positions.

Bill Eigen talks about diversification and the Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income fund:

"Many investors consider their portfolios well-diversified if they allocate between equity funds with different risk characteristics and a fixed-income fund - in most cases a U.S. government fund or investment-grade bond fund. While I believe that is a reasonable investment strategy, I think there is an additional risk to consider. Traditional fixed-income funds are generally concentrated in only one area of the market. Like equities, different fixed-income asset classes offer widely varying risk/return characteristics. I think the diversification offered within Advisor Strategic Income takes advantage of all aspects of the fixed-income markets - including emerging markets, high yield, non-U.S. developed markets and U.S. government securities.

"The benefit of this type of diversification is that if one sector of the fund is experiencing negative returns, it could be offset by another sector that is performing well. The end result is a portfolio that provides competitive returns over time within a controlled volatility framework. The historical returns of the fund illustrate this concept well.

"My goal, as the lead manager, is to attempt to provide investors with as much exposure to positive absolute returns as possible. I plan to minimize underperforming assets and maximize those assets performing well by continually monitoring and adjusting the fund's investment allocations among the subportfolios. It is my belief that the diversification offered by the fund works in the best interest of investors."

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements

For the period ended December 31, 2001

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Advisor Strategic 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 (sales prices if the principal market is an exchange) in the principal market in which such securities are normally traded. Securities (including restricted securities) for which market quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an exchange) are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or 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.

Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements - continued

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Foreign Currency - continued

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.

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 U.S. federal income taxes to the extent that it distributes all of its taxable income for its fiscal year. The fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income and gains on investments which are accrued based upon the fund's understanding of the tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests. Foreign governments may also impose taxes on other payments or transactions with respect to foreign securities. The fund accrues such taxes as applicable. The Schedule of Investments includes information regarding income taxes 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, 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.

Annual Report

1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued

Distributions to Shareholders - continued

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 options transactions, foreign currency transactions, market discount, non-taxable dividends, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

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

As of December 31, 2001, undistributed net income and accumulated loss on a tax basis were as follows:

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 January 1, 2001, the fund adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing premium and discount on all debt securities, as required. The cumulative effect of this accounting change had no impact on total net assets of the fund, but resulted in a $283,686 decrease to the cost of securities held and a corresponding decrease to accumulated net undistributed realized gain (loss), based on securities held by the fund on January 1, 2001.

The effect of this change during the period, was to increase net investment income by $119,230; decrease net unrealized appreciation/depreciation by $98,899; and decrease net realized gain (loss) by $20,331. The Statement of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights for prior periods have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation.

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 funds, or to the Joint Trading Account, at a custodian bank. The securities are marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). FMR, the 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.

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. The payables and receivables associated with the purchases and sales of delayed delivery securities having the same coupon, settlement date and broker are offset. Delayed delivery or when-issued securities that have been purchased from and sold to different brokers are reflected as both payables and receivables in the fund's Statements of Assets and Liabilities under the caption "Delayed delivery." 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.

Options. The fund may use options to manage its exposure to the bond market and to fluctuations in interest rates. Writing puts and buying calls tend to increase the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument. Buying puts and writing calls tend to decrease the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument, or hedge other fund investments. The underlying face amount at value of any open options at period end is shown in the Schedule of Investments under the caption "Purchased Options." This amount reflects each contract's exposure to the underlying instrument at period end. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the underlying instruments, if there is an illiquid secondary market for the

contracts, or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms. Gains and losses are realized upon the expiration or closing of the options. Realized gains (losses) on purchased options are included in realized gains (losses) on investment securities.

Exchange-traded options are valued using the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale, the last offering price. Options traded over-the-counter are valued using dealer-supplied valuations.

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 stand by 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.

The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR.

6. Expense Reductions.

Through arrangements with the fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the fund's custody expenses by $7,257.

7. Credit Risk.

The fund's relatively large investment in countries with limited or developing capital markets may involve greater risks than investments in more developed markets and the prices of such investments may be volatile.

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

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Advisor Strategic Income Fund, (the Fund), a fund of Fidelity Advisor Series II (the Trust), including the portfolio of investments, as of December 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 December 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 Strategic Income Fund as of December 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.
