Did you file yet ?  If you haven't filed......

 

To enter or change the amount you paid with an extension (including state extension) go to

Federal Taxes (or Personal for desktop H&B version)

Deductions and Credits

Then scroll way down to Estimates and Other Taxes Paid

Other Income Taxes - Click the Start or Update button

 

Next page second section Payments with Extension

I have more W2 to add to my filing this year 

 

February 4, 2025

You need to report all your income on your tax return. 

If you received another W-2 after filing, wait until the IRS either reject or accept your return. 

  •  If your return is rejected, you can add the W-2 before resubmitting or paper-filing your return.
  • If your return is accepted (or if you already paper-filed), you'll need to amend your return to add another W-2.

Where do I add or enter a second W-2?

If you did already file with the incorrect amount, wait until the IRS finishes processing your tax return and you get the refund (if any). The IRS might correct the payment amount for you, since they know how much you paid. If they don't correct it, you will have to file an amended return to make the correction.
