After you file

@saragbby00 If you do not amend and add that income, someday the IRS will send you a nasty letter when they catch the unreported income and you may owe more tax with interest.    Or....maybe....perhaps the additional income would increase refundable credits you could get like earned income or child tax credit---and you will miss out on that additional money.  The IRS will not tell you about that.

 

And...you cannot just wait and put the W-2 on your 2024 return.  That is not allowed.
