Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

I reported exactly what was on my last paystub, what happens if my w-2 shows an income a little higher (at most only like $200-$300 higher)?

You may need to file an amended return or the IRS may correct it for you since they get a copy of all W2's  

Wait and see. If the IRS accepts your return and does not correct it (you will get a letter if they do adjust it) you will need to file an amended return.

Ahh....thank you. Chances are the last stub was accurate, but nice to know that they may just go ahead and fix it.
