If you have not e-filed your tax return, simply follow:
1. Sign back into your account and select Take me to my return
2. At the right upper corner, in the search box , type in W-2 and Enter
3. Select Jump to w-2
4. Program will take you directly to screen, Here's your W-2 info
5. Under Total Wages, select one of the blue links Add a W-2 ( See attached screenshot)
If you have e-filed, wait until your return is accepted or rejected by IRS
-If your return is rejected, add your new W-2 (along with anything else that needs to be corrected) and then re-submit your return.
If your return has been accepted, you cannot change the information. Instead, you have to amend a return.
--Click on Amendment
IRS does not allow e-file for amendment, you will need to submit the amendment forms with any supporting documents by mail. ( Follow instructions through the step-by-step interview questions in the program)
If your original return generates a refund, you should wait until your original refund arrives before you file your amendment. You can cash your check, but you still should wait until your current tax return is resolved. Note that if you see " Do Not File" watermark on your Form, this means your original return is either still pending or forms are not finalized yet.

I forgot to put one of my W-2s and what will happen
If you have filed the 2021 tax return then you will have to amend the return to add the W-2 you received.
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 16 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.
The federal amended tax return, Form 1040-X, for tax year 2021 is estimated to be available in TurboTax on 02/24/2022
