I accidentally filed my 2023 w2 with my 2024 w2, it was accepted and is now processing with the IRS. Will they automatically adjust the changes or do I need to amend my return. If I need to amend my return do I need to wait after the processing stage is done with my taxes or can I do it now?

You made a mistake by putting two different years of income on the same tax return, but somehow the IRS accepted your return and is processing it? WAIT for the return to be fully processed. Do not try to change anything on your return now. Sometimes the IRS catches and corrects mistakes. If they do not catch this, then after it has been fully processed, you should amend.

Yes they accepted my return and when I check the website it says processing. I haven’t gotten a date as to when I will get my taxes, so with this mistake will it take longer to receive my taxes? They were accepted Feb. 20th. Also will I receive a notice as to further action on what I should do if the IRS does catch it?

Will this delay on when I am supposed to receive my taxes? Also can I efile again or do I have to send them through the mail?

It might delay your return, you should track the status of your return at the IRS Where's My Refund? ‌Once your return is processed, you can amend your return. You should be able to e-file your return, as long as you e-filed your original return on TurboTax.
