Are you really in a hurry to e-file so that your return can just sit on a server for most of January until the IRS begins to accept/reject e-files in late January? If you discover that you made a mistake, you cannot fix the mistake while your return pends on that server.
Do not file a tax return without ALL of your income documents; you must include every 2023 W-2 on the same tax return. Employers have until the end of January to issue W-2’s. Wait until you have all of your W-2’s. Clients, schools, Social Security, banks and other financial institutions may not have tax documents available until late January/early February. ALL of your tax documents must be entered on the same Form 1040; do not file unless you have entered everything.
