Best Answer

Individual Income Taxes are paid based on a calendar year ending on December 31st. If you failed to file or received a W-2 form or other reporting forms after you had filed your taxes, your only option is the amend that tax return to add the information. You cannot add a form from one year to the next year. This is not allowed.
