Hi quick question. So I it just got my refund check back from a W-2 but a week later see that I have three more w-2s to file that I had completely forgot about. How would I go about doing this?

Since your original return was accepted by the IRS, you must prepare, print, sign and mail an amended tax return form 1040X to correct the problem. The 1040X will be available later in February.

 

DO NOT change your original tax return until you start the amended return. If you have already changed it from the way it was originally filed and accepted, you must change it back before you start the amended return. Wait until you receive the refund from your original return before beginning your amended return to make sure you enter the correct amount. Here is an FAQ to help you:
