HELP!
Will my amended return be penalized????
When I filed in January 2020, I selected the option for using the same employer from the previous year. Since TurboTax was able to pull my W2 info electronically, I didn't bother opening the hard copy W2s when they came in the mail a month later, thinking it was just two copies of the same thing (lesson learned).
Now, we're about to close on a house and wouldn't you know it, my transcripts and the W2 I sent to the lender don't match. So I opened up the other W2 and almost died. Same employer (Amazon) but different EIN and different wages. I have to amend my return, but I'm worried about being penalized. That may affect us being able to close on our would-be home.
Please help! 😥
