Don't worry. Since you
got another W-2 after filing you
can still fix your return.
You'll want to determine if the IRS or state has Accepted the information you already filed. If the IRS and the state have accepted it, you will see "Accepted" as the status of your return when you sign in to TurboTax (on your Tax Timeline). If they have accepted your return, then you may need to amend your tax return.
Before you amend your return, here are three things you need to know.
First, make sure you got your refund or paid your taxes due; you want to make sure the government doesn’t get confused with your money, so the original return needs to be all squared away before you amend.
Second, print a copy of your original return and have it right by your side when you start to amend in TurboTax. Trust us; this is really important.
Third, you can amend this year’s return only with this year’s version of TurboTax. If you want to amend your return from a prior year, use that year’s version of TurboTax.
To start your amended return, go back into TurboTax, open the return that you already sent in, and on the first page you see, click on the link to amend your return.
Remember before you amend: amend only if you need to make a change on a return you have already filed. Wait until you got your refund or paid your taxes. Have a copy of your original return at your side before you start. And be sure you use the correct year’s version of TurboTax. Don’t worry, TurboTax will walk you through the entire amend process.
