It says I already filed my 2019 taxes, which I hadn't. I did file my 2018 taxes in March or April. What should I do?

After I filed the 2018 taxes, they sent me something asking why I hadn't filed them yet.

uh oh.....did you use the online program a couple of months ago for a 2018 return?  That was a big mistake.  The current online program is ONLY for 2019 returns--no other year.  

Did you e-file it?  Was it accepted or rejected?  We need to know in order to tell you what to do next to fix your mistake.

I just filed my 2020 taxes and put the 2019 W-2s instead of the 2020 W-2. What can I do?

Were you trying to file for 2019 or just entered the wrong W2?

You cannot change or add anything on the return that you e-filed.  It is too late, just like when you put an envelope in a US mailbox

Now you have to wait until the IRS either rejects or accepts your return. Which won't be until Feb 12 this year. If your return is rejected, you will be able to go into your account and add or change it and resend it. Click on Add a State to let you back into your return..

If the IRS accepts your return, then you have to wait until it has been fully processed and you have received your refund or paid the tax due. THEN you can prepare an amended tax return 1040X and mail it in. You cannot e-file an amended return.  Meanwhile, DO NOT change anything on your return until you start the amended return. If you did change or add the missing info then take it out and put your return back to the way it was when you first filed it.
