I received a W-2c form for 2024 after I had already filed my 2024 taxes last year. On which year tax forms do I need to add my W-2c form?

Is it possible to add it to the 2025 tax return? or would I have to amend my 2024 taxes?

No, you  can't add a W-2C form for 2024 to your 2025 tax return. You may need to amend your 2024 taxes if your income, taxes, or deductions have changed on the W2-C. Compare the information in boxes 1-20 on your W-2C with your original W-2. If the amounts differ, you can file an amendment for 2024. If the new information doesn't change your original refund or balance due, there's no need to file an amendment.

What was the change to the W-2?   The change might not be relevant enough to require you to amend.

Not all changes require filing an amended return. If you post the box numbers that changed, we could advise further
