If you have NOT filed your return you can log back into your account, go to the federal tab and be able to edit the income you entered into the program. You will see the W-2's listed you added to the return, next to each of them will be a small trash can icon. Click that to remove the W-2 from your return, then continue on to finish and file your return. 

 

If you already filed your return you will need to wait to see if it was rejected or accepted. If they were rejected, you are able to login to your return to correct the errors that caused the rejection and then re-file your return. If your returns were accepted, then you will need to file an amended return.

 

You should not try to amend your return until the original return it has been fully processed and you have received your refund or your payment has cleared.
 

Amended returns do not “catch up” to your original return and replace them; they are processed as two separate returns.  
Amended returns have to be printed and filed by mail.  It can take the IRS up to 12 weeks or longer to process them.   If you are due a larger refund than on your original return, your amended return should only show the difference and you will receive a separate check for it.  If you owe money on your amended return, it will show only the new amount owed, you will have to mail a check with the return.
