So I filed one of my one of W-2s but then I started think of my other jobs I had last year in 2019.... and noticed my passed 2 jobs didn’t give me my w-2s... would I be able to file those too, when I receive my other 3 w-2 forms?

ALL of your 2019 W-2’s and/or 1099’s were supposed to be on the same tax return. Remember that next year and do not e-file until you have everything. Now you have to prepare an amended return to add those W-2's.

Do not start that until you have all of the 2019 W-2's you need.

How do I amend my 2019 TurboTax Online return?

A 1040X cannot be e-filed. It must be printed and mailed. It will take about 4 months for the IRS to process an amended return. It is a good idea to use a mailing service that will track it, like UPS or certified mail, so you will know it was received.

Wait about 3 weeks from mailing and you can check the status of your amended return:

Thank you! I'll definitely remember this for next year! But the IRS office in my state are closed due to COVID-19.... If I send it to them, would they still receive it??

@Moe0509 Yes, they will still receive it if you mail it. But it will take a long time--much longer than normal-- for it to be processed.
