If your e-file was accepted, you will need to amend your return.  Go to the link below and click on “2016” in blue print.  This will help you start the amended return.  You can then make any changes you need to make (i.e. add the income from your previous employer).

You will have to print the amended return, sign it, then file the amended return by mail.

If your e-file is rejected, you can simply go back in, add the additional income and fix the rejection error, then refile your return.
