Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@clar071 What?   You were supposed to put ALL of your 2021 W-2's on the same tax return and file it all together.   You do not file them one at a time.   Now you will have to wait to see if the IRS accepts or rejects your e-file.   If they reject it, you can go back in and add that other W-2 and re-file it.   If they accepted your e-file, then you have to wait until the tax return has been fully processed, and then you will have to amend it to add the other W-2.   

 

 

You cannot change or add anything on the return that you just e-filed, nor can you stop it.  It is too late, just like when you put an envelope in a US mailbox on the corner.  The IRS does not allow you to take it back.

 

If you left out a W-2, a 1099G, or a dependent, or a 1099 etc…DO NOT change your return while it is “pending.”  The changes will go nowhere.

 

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 make the necessary changes to your tax return and re-submit your return. 

 

 If the IRS accepts your return, however, then you have to wait longer until it has been fully processed and you have received your refund.  THEN you can prepare an amended tax return and e-file or mail  it in. You have to be able to work from that return exactly the way it was when it was e-filed originally.  You will need to use a form called a 1040X.

 

  Meanwhile, DO NOT go in and start changing anything on your return in the system, or you will make a mess for yourself.  Sit tight and wait until you see what the IRS does with the return you just e-filed.  You will get an email that tells you whether the IRS accepts or rejects the return.   Post back for further help after you get that email.
