What do I do if I forgot to add a w2 to my 2024 taxes?

I didn't think I worked in 2024 at a particular job, but did. I have moved since then, so did not receive the w2. How do I add the new w2 to taxes already e-filed?

Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.


See this TurboTax support FAQ for amending a current year tax return - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/amend-federal-tax-return-curr...

Once your tax return is fully processed and you receive your refund, you can file an amendment. When you do your amendment to add your W-2, TurboTax will calculate your new refund or balance due based on the W-2.  If your original refund was more than what you should have received when your W-2 is added, you will have a balance due.

 

For more information and instructions, review the TurboTax articles How to Correct Federal Tax Returns, How to File an Amended Tax Return with the IRS and Video: How to Amend Your Tax Return.
