I didn't put one of my w2's on file because I was told I wouldn't be getting one from my previous job, turns out I will, is there a way to add it, what can I do?

If your return is accepted, you would have to amend your return to add the additional W-2. Amended returns must be mailed. The amendment form (1040x for Federal) is not available in TurboTax until mid to late February. You would have to wait until the form is available to amend your return.

Where do I add or enter a second W-2?

If you haven't already filed your return:

Open (continue) your return if you don't already have it open.
Search for W-2 and select the Jump to link in the search results.
We'll take you to a screen where you can click Add a W-2 for [your name or your spouse's name].
Enter the information from the new W-2 on the following screens.

If you already e-filed, you'll have wait until your return is either accepted or rejected.

If rejected, you can add the W-2 as described above before resubmitting or paper-filing your return.
If accepted (or if you already paper-filed), you'll need to amend your return to add another W-2.
