I missed adding a W-2 and didn’t realize until I had already gotten my taxes back. Am I able to file it for next years returns?

I was told to not amend it and that it wasn’t worth doing anything about so I ignored it. However, if I am able to file them even though they’re from last year I would like to do so.

Who told you not to amend?  Of course you need to amend that return to add it.  Or did the IRS already add it in and adjust your return?

Now if you complete the amendment and nothing changes  then the requirement to file it is no longer valid.  Only file a 1040X  if there are changes to the bottom line to report.

Each tax year is separate.   Income received in 2022 can only be entered on a 2022 tax return.  You cannot save a 2022 W-2 and just put it on your 2023 tax return next year.     You can amend your 2022 return to include the W-2.
