W2 return

[Bengina20]

Hey so I filed for my child tax return and got accepted and I actually got the money and it shows on the turbo tax Home Screen big the big black numbers but turbo tax didn’t finish the line when it says it been received the status line , so now I received my two W2 forms and I filed on turbo tax on the same account but I can’t see the amount I’m getting on my Home Screen I only can see the numbers when I go through “add a state” so I’m confused I don’t know if my W2 was processed or went through or anything someone please help

Sorry--you messed up.   You cannot file multiple tax returns.   You should have waited for all of your information put it all on the same tax return.  But you filed a tax return to get the child tax credit and did not wait for your W-2's.   Now you have to wait for that first return to be fully processed.   Then in late February/mid March at the earliest, you will need to use a Form 1040X to amend your first tax return and enter all of the income from those W-2's.   The 1040X is not yet available---so wait for it.

Oh...and change your return back to exactly the way it looked when you filed it originally.   You have to be able to work from it as it looked when you filed it a few weeks ago.  Un-do any changes you made or it will be a mess when you try to amend.

Hey am I able to delete the W2 forms and re enter the forms after my child tax been accepted and processed, because online it gives me the option to delete or edit

If you have already filed your return and it is Accepted, any changes made will need to be completed on an Amendment form 1040-X.  To do this, please see the Help Article here.  Please keep in mind that the 20211040-X may not be ready just yet.
