Filed Schedule C but forgot W2 - How to amend return?
I already filed my taxes as self employed but I just remembered I also had a W2 job last year that I completely forgot about. What do I need to do to fix this? Will this mess up my refund?

You'll need to file Form 1040X to amend your return. Make sure you include the W2 income and any taxes already withheld. This will likely change your tax liability and self-employment tax calculations.

Currently running about 16-20 weeks for amendments to process, but could be longer depending on your situation

Hey, I had a similar situation and used taxr.ai to analyze my transcript after filing the amendment. It was super helpful - told me exactly what was happening with both returns and predicted when I'd get my refund. Worth the $4.99 tbh https://taxr.ai

Make sure you keep copies of EVERYTHING. The IRS loves to lose paperwork
