I e filed my taxes and realized I didn’t claim one of my children so I amended. But I went to a tax person to amend. But he noticed my social security number was missing. So he sent in my amended taxes and I reached out to my employer for help and they sent me a 44444 form with my social on it. How do I go about sending it into the irs? Do I just send it in by itself or do I need to print something else off? How do I get it to them. Do I need to re amend again?

The form you are referring to is Form W-2c. It is a corrected W-2 form. You do not have to send it to the IRS as your employer has already filed it with the IRS. Just keep that form in your tax records.

Yes. But your tax preparer who spotted the error has already amended your return. And your employer corrected with the IRS. All is fine now.
