Missing W2 on Return & PATH Act Delay - Will This Affect My Processing Time?

Filed my taxes with my family like we do every year. Usually we all get PATH updates the same day and receive refunds together. This year everyone updated except me. Just realized I forgot to include a W2 from a short term job (2 months). Already planning to amend but wondering if the missing W2 is whats causing me not to hit PATH status?

Check your wage and income transcript on irs.gov - if the missing W2 is showing there, you might be able to avoid amending
