If I worked two jobs in the yr do I have to file both w2s or can I just file the one with the most?

What is the most you can make to not have to file for one?

you must report both. if you don't expect the IRS to contact you.  s to filing if there's withholding and your tax bill is zero the only way to get it back is to file. also, states may have a different filing requirement.

these are the 1040 instructions

since you have provided no info about yourself look at pages 9,10 and 11 to see if you need to file.

@gisellevaz618 - assuming you are single, if your income is less than $12,950, you have no requirement to file HOWEVER, the only way to get the withholdings back is to file.  your state probably works similarly, but the treshhold not required to file is probably somewhat different.

Every

2022 W-2 that you received must be reported on your 2022 tax return, even if they are for small amounts.  Remember that each one of those W-2’s has your Social Security number on it, and that income was reported to the IRS by the employer.  You do not want to get in trouble with the IRS for under-reporting your income.

ALL of your W-2’s must be entered on the SAME tax return.
