No.  You have to include all your income on the same tax return.  Did you get another W2 after you filed?

 

You cannot change or add anything on the return that you e-filed.  It is too late, just like when you put an envelope in a US mailbox

Now you have to wait until the IRS either rejects or accepts your return. If your return is rejected, you will be able to go into your account and add or change it and resend it.

If the IRS accepts your return, then you have to wait until it has been fully processed and you have received your refund or paid the tax due. THEN you can prepare an amended tax return 1040X and mail it in. You cannot e-file an amended return.  Meanwhile, DO NOT change anything on your return until you start the amended return. If you did change or add the missing info then take it out and put your return back to the way it was when you first filed it.

Yes, unfortunately I got one later than the other. Does this mean I can’t file the W2 for my other job anymore or I just have to wait it out? Thanks for your help by the way!

If you filed the first one and it got accepted you will have to amend your return to add it.  See my post above.
