Hello, I just added another W-2 on my taxes, and I'm wondering if the previous tax return I filed will come?

Also, how do I send my amended tax return? Thank you.

Wait until your initial return is complete before submitting an amended return. Amended returns cannot be e-filed either. They can only be mailed and they take some time. I recently amended my last 3 years to claim my children and the EIC/ACTC. I just started receiving the $20k in checks from the Feds and it takes a lot of time.

Anyways, it's important you wait for the original return to complete before doing the amendment. Once you mail in the amended return, like Where's my Refund, the Feds also have "Where's my amended refund".

Thank you. To be clear:  I will still receive my unamended tax return (it was accepted) but should wait to mail my amended tax return until I receive the previous one? Thank you.

Exactly.

You don't want the simpletons working for our government being totally confused by having two returns for the same year. That's too much for them. Lol

Ha. Thank you.
