What do I do now?

Tell me if I messed up and if I can fix it.
This is my first time doing my own taxes on Turbo Tax and I originally filed two W-2s and they were accepted and had given me an expected refund date of my return. However, I remembered I missed one from a job I worked last year so I called to receive it and added it on, now the refund is $61 less and telling me it’s ready to mail instead of giving me an expected refund date. I think I did something wrong.

Please delete the W-2 that you added after the tax return was filed. If you have to amend the return it Must be Exactly as it was originally filed before you can amend the return.

You will need to amend the filed 2019 tax return to add the additional W-2.

An amended tax return, Form 1040X, can only be printed, signed, dated and mailed by you to the IRS, it cannot be e-filed. The IRS will take up to 4 months to process the amended tax return. Wait until you have received the tax refund or the taxes owed have been paid and processed by the IRS before amending the tax return.

To access your online tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the User ID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show. Click on the Year and Click on Amend (change) return

Okay so delete the one I added and keep the original two W-2s I had that were accepted?
