If you filed your tax return using incorrect information from the wrong W-2 then you need to amend the return after it has been fully processed. Do not wait to be "audited."
The system is now in transition from 2018 to 2019 software. Wait until the transition is complete in December.

A 1040X cannot be e-filed. It must be printed and mailed. It will take about 3-4 months for the IRS to process an amended return. It is a good idea to use a mailing service that will track it, like UPS or certified mail, so you will know it was received.
Wait about 3 weeks from mailing and you can check the status of your amended return:
