Hi,

I filed my taxes today and found another W2 form from employer and the numbers totally different might be they change the system at their end generated 2 forms. but what should I do to get it correct on IRS?

Government already accepted the forms for the first time.

First thing you need to do is determine if the second W-2 is a corrected W-2, and if not, why you received both.

You need to speak with your company's payroll department to be clear.

If the second W-2 is a corrected W-2, you may need to amend your tax return for the corrections made on the second W-2.

If the second W-2 is an additional W-2, you'll also need to amend and ADD the second one.

Your original return may have been accepted, but the IRS gets a copy of all W-2's generated by all employers, so if you have two, the IRS has two copies as well.

You have 3 years from the date you filed your return (or 2 years after you paid the tax due, whichever is later) to file an amended return.
