Received Corrected W-2, Box 13 Now Checked. Do I need to amend?

Returns has been filed & accepted. Employer issued a corrected W-2, where Box 13 (Retirement Plan) is checked (this is only change). I entered the changes on TurboTax Amendment website portal & it did not affect the tax refund amount at all. Do I need to amend my return?

 

Other info (if it matters): I contributed to a 401K, as did spouse. I also did backdoor Roth. I entered in the corrected info on TurboTax Amend my return page and the change did not change the refund.

No, as long as you entered it in TurboTax and the change did not affect your IRA contributions, you would not have to amend your tax return.
