You cannot add a W-2 to your tax return after the tax return was filed.  There was nothing filed after the original tax return was filed and accepted by the IRS.  You can only amend the 2019 tax return to add another W-2

 

Please delete the W-2 that you added after the tax return was filed.  When you have to amend the return it Must be Exactly as it was originally filed before you can amend the return.

 

An amended tax return, Form 1040X, can only be printed, signed, dated and mailed by you to the IRS, it cannot be e-filed. The IRS will take up to 4 months to process the amended tax return. Wait until you have received the tax refund or the taxes owed have been paid and processed by the IRS before amending the tax return.

Did you mail in an Amended 1040X to add the new W2?  You can't just add it the normal way.  You can only file 1 tax return.

 

Amended returns can only be mailed and take 16 weeks to process.  And they only mail checks for refunds.
