Edit your W-2 and enter the correct name and address in the W-2 entry screen, not how it appears on your W-2.  As long as the EIN (Box b) is correct, you should not have a problem.  If the EIN is wrong or missing, you will need to get a corrected W-2 before you can file.  To edit a W-2:

On a computer, search for W-2 in the search box. Then, click the "Jump to" link in the search results to open the Here's your W-2 info screen. Click Edit next to the W-2 you want to change.
