Popis: We present expressions for the supercurrents generated by a generic $4D,~\mathcal{N}=1$ theory of complex linear superfield $\Sigma$. We verify that these expressions satisfy the appropriate superspace conservation equations. Furthermore, we discuss the component projection in order to derive expressions for the energy-momentum tensor, the supersymmetry current and the R-symmetry current when available. In addition, we discuss aspects of the coupling of the theory to supergravity. Specifically, we present a straightforward method to select the appropriate formulations of supergravity that one must use in order to do the coupling. This procedure is controlled by a superfield X originating from the Super-Poincar\'{e} invariance of the theory. We apply these results to examples of theories with higher derivative terms.
