I have a question. So I filed my taxes jointly with my wife, she only worked for 4 days this past year and she wasn’t expecting to get a W-2 form from her job but she did after I filed my taxes.

You will need to file an Amended return after your return is processed and you get your refund.

Once the return has been filed it cannot be stopped (unless you get extremely lucky and IRS would reject it for some reason).

So you have to wait for the return to be processed and you get your refund.

Then approx mid-February you can sign back into TurboTax and do the Amended return.
