Can I e-file another W-2 after I have already filed my first W-2 and it has already been accepted? Also, will I have to worry about a deadline in this case?

You have to wait until your return is processed and then amend it. There is no hurry but if you owe more tax the IRS will charge you interest.

If you filed, it is like dropping it into a mailbox - you cannot get it back.

You'll have wait until your return is either accepted or rejected.

If rejected, you can make any necessary changes.
If accepted, you'll need to amend your return.
To avoid unnecessary delays, do not amend until your original return has been fully processed. You will need to print and mail the amendment.
Allow 8-12 weeks for processing.

See this TurboTax FAQ for help with amending.

You can check the status of your amended return here, but allow 3 weeks after filing for it to show up.
