what year are we talking about? if for 2021 wait to see what happens with the original filing. it may be rejected because of the missing w-2's. then the issue is the amended return that you submitted.  you should not have submitted it until the original return was accepted and fully processed.   so assuming the amended return is also rejected, then you can go back fix your return for all items and resubmit as an original return. not as an amended return. e-filing has not officially opened for the 2021 tax year. right now your original and amended returns are sitting on Turbotax servers waiting to be submitted once e-filing opens. you will not get an accepted or rejected e-mail until the returns are actually transmitted to the IRS.

I didn't even file it     it did it on its own for some reason I was just trying to get an estimate and then the app glitched and messed up my whole filing set up I had through TurboTax but thankyou for the info

MY RETURN IS IN PENDING—what does that mean?

 

Did you e-file?  Did you click that big orange button that said “Transmit my returns now?”  If so, your return is now in “pending” on a server.  Do not try to change anything while your return is in pending. By late January/early February the IRS will begin to accept/reject e-files.   If your return is rejected you will be able to make corrections before re-filing.   If the return you e-filed is accepted you will have to wait until it has been fully processed and then amend it to fix your mistake.

There is no way the program could file on it's own ... so is it really filed ?    Log in and look ... what is the status ? If it says PRINTED or MAILED  then you did NOT file  so you can still make changes.  If you don't see the option to continue the return scroll down and click on ADD A STATE to let you back in.
