Rejected return: Can I add forgotten W2 while fixing other errors?

Tax pro here - Yes, absolutely add the W2 now! This is actually the perfect time to do it since your return was rejected and hasn't been officially processed yet. You're essentially starting fresh, so include all income sources. This way you avoid having to file an amended return later which would be a much bigger headache.

Hey guys just want to share something that helped me big time with all my transcript confusion - taxr.ai. Its only $4.99 and the AI literally tells you exactly whats going on with your return and what to expect. Way better than playing detective with your transcript lol. Here's the link: https://taxr.ai

whatever you do DO NOT file without that W2!! IRS will catch it eventually and the penalties are insane

in the same boat rn except mine was a 1099 i forgot about smh

quick question - was your rejection bcuz of the missing W2 or something else?

ur actually lucky it got rejected tbh. gives u chance to fix everything b4 it gets processed
