I filed, then added to my TT portal two documents: w-2 and 1098-T for tuition. Question, will TT send all uploaded documents into IRS, will IRS recalculate return?

No.

 

You may need to file an amended return. 

The IRS has a copy of your W-2 and 1098-T, they always did. 

Entering them into TurboTax is not how the IRS gets their copies, your employer sends them a copy of your W-2 and the school sends them a copy of your 1098-T.

 

Since you filed without one of your W-2 and without your 1098-T, you will need to wait to hear from the IRS. They may process your original return or (most likely) they will send you a letter asking about the missing W-2. 

 

At that time you may need to file an amended return or work with the IRS to get it straightened out. 

 

HERE is a link that explains amending returns.

If you have made changes since you e-filed, you messed up your tax return and will have a problem when you try to amend it.   Put it back to exactly the way it was before you e-filed.   When you amend, you need to be able to work from the return exactly as it looked when originally filed with the IRS.  

 

The 1040X becomes available in late February.   Restore your return to its original appearance and back away from the keyboard.
