I tried going through somewhere else and it had half of my information however when I filed and checked I saw not everything was added. Will I be able to amend my taxes and get the correct refund

Since the tax return has been filed you must amend the tax return to add more W-2's.

The Form 1040-X for amending a 2025 federal tax return is estimated to be available in TurboTax on 02/25/2026

If the return is rejected you can make the necessary changes and e-file again.
If the return is accepted you will have to amend your original tax return. An amended return, Form 1040-X, can only be printed and mailed to the IRS if the original tax return was not e-filed. The IRS will take up to 20 weeks or longer to process an amended tax return.

Before starting to amend the tax return, wait for the tax refund to be received or the taxes due to be paid and processed by the IRS.

Important- wait until your first return is done processing. The IRS may automatically add the missing W2s for you and adjust your refund. There was just another post that the IRS adjusted their return. So they don’t have to amend now.

Yes, you will have to amend your tax return.

The IRS is not accepting amended returns for 2025, but they typically begin in late February.

You should follow these guidelines.

You must first wait until the initial return is completely processed.
You will have to use the same TurboTax account that you used for the original tax return.
Once you begin your amendment, you'll see your original return. 
The refund calculator will start ‌at $0 and only reflect the changes in the refund or tax due
Only make changes to the areas of your return that need to be corrected.
