I forgot to add a W-2 for income of $6500. my initial return was accepted and I am set to receive my refund on 2/11. Since the IRS will probably catch the unreported W-2, what will happen to my initial refund?

If the IRS catches the missing W-2, they will have to recalculate your refund. Depending on how much tax was withheld from the wages on that W-2, your refund might go down. You will have to wait and see. If they do not catch the mistake, you will need to amend after you receive the first refund.
