Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

During two consecutive years, my employer made a mistake entering a wrong SSN in the W2 form. However, while filing taxes with TurboTax I entered the correct SSN.

My employer is notified and is on the process of fixing the W2 forms today. My question is: If my e-file was already sent to the IRS (with the correct SSN) , what should I do to solve this issue?

As long as your employer is correcting the SSN on your W-2's and submitting the changes to the IRS, you should not have to make any changes to your return. You can check your e-file status and make sure that your return is accepted, but you should not have any problems.
