If you have already filed the 2023 tax return -

 

You will have to wait for the IRS to either Accept or Reject your filed federal tax return.
If the return is rejected you can make the necessary changes and e-file again.
If the return is accepted you will have to amend your original tax return. An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return.


Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.

Can I change the information I entered for my FedEx w-2? They sent a corrected w-2 and I entered the wrong information .

Yes, if you have already submitted your return for e-file and it was accepted, you will need to wait until the original return is fully processed. That means that you have received your refund, or waited at least 21 days after the return is accepted if you owe. 

 

If you haven't submitted your return yet, you can make your changes now. Here's how to do that:

 

 

 

  1. Sign in to TurboTax.
  2. Select  Wages & Income.
  3. To the right of Job (W-2), select Edit/ Add.
  4. Select the Edit below the W-2. 
  5. On the W-2C form, there are two sets of two columns labeled Previously Reported and Correct information. Just change the numbers to the ones listed as Correct Information on your Form W-2C and leave the original numbers alone if they aren't corrected.
  6. Select Continue to return to the Wages & Income screen.
