I accidentally entered in the wrong employer EIN number on my return. Will the IRS reject my return and have me fix that? Or will they accept it?

(I entered in an actual employer EIN, but it's a different EIN than the one that's on my W-2. I also forgot to input one of my W-2s on my return so I'm hoping the IRS does reject my return so I can go

You will just have to wait and see what the IRS does. They will start to accept/reject on January 27.

Meanwhile do not try to change anything.
