To amend your Federal return the form is 1040x & your original return must be accepted.  To add your missing W-2 you should wait until the IRS fully processes your return, the IRS gets copies of all W-2's so they may send you a letter asking for the additional information.

 

If your original return gets fully process without the missing W-2 you would then amend your return to add the W-2.  The amendment form is not available to sometime in mid February, you need to wait until the form is avail to amend your return.  Amend returns must be mailed & any refund due with the amended return is sent by check.
