I filed 2021 and it was accepted. Later I received a W2 of a job I worked temp briefly in the beginning of year, which I forgot all about. Should I amend and how would this affect my return? Will it be delayed?

You should not amend yet. You should wait until the IRS has processed your return, which means you have received any refund you were expecting. If, and when you receive your refund, then you should amend your return. If you were not expecting a refund, you should amend once the any payment you made has been processed. It is possible that the IRS will catch the omission, and send you a letter proposing changes to your return to include the missing W-2. Should that happen, you don't have to do anything unless you don't agree with their proposed changes, in which case you will need to respond to them. There is a good chance the processing of your return, and any refund you are due will be delayed, but there is no way to know for sure.
