You can not enter your daughters W2 on your return. She might need to file her own return for it. More on that later.
Then to fix your return. 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.

Be sure on the dependent return you check the box that says you can be claimed on someone else’s return. If your only income is W2 and under 12,200 you do not have to file a return except to get back any withholding taken out.
