What do I do if I file my taxes, but get another W-2 in the mail
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
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. If your return is rejected, you will be able to go into your account and add or change it and resend it.
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.

@VolvoGirl Thank you, but what if it was accepted, and I will b getting zero dollars in return?
You had a 0 refund on the original return you efiled? Did you have a tax due?
The Amended 1040X form won't be ready until Feb. 5, 2020.
