My old company sent me the W2 form pass tax return deadline. Now, I need to add this W2 form for 2018 tax return as well. How can I do it? Thank you!

If you already filed your 2018 tax return and it has been fully processed then you must prepare an amended return to add the W-2 you just received

A 1040X cannot be e-filed.  It must be printed and mailed.  It will take about 3-4 months for the IRS to process an amended return.  It is a good idea to use a mailing service that will track it, like UPS or certified mail, so you will know it was received.

Wait about 3 weeks from mailing and you can check the status of your amended return:
