w2

I had 2 W2s in 2017. I only filed 1 W2. In 2019 was audited by IRS on the other W2. Could I still file it this year. What are my options.

You cannot include a W-2 from a past year on a different year's tax return.  That would be a

big

mistake.

 

A 2017 W-2 has to be on a 2017 tax return.  You say "I was audited by the IRS on the other W-2"    Please explain exactly what happened.   Did the IRS make you pay?  What did the letter you got from the IRS say about the missing W-2?  We do not know what to tell you to do unless you explain in more detail.

 

 

TurboTax does not receive any information from the IRS or your state after your return was filed, so no one at TurboTax knows about a letter you received from the IRS or the state.
