Upon review, your tax return is correct with the Box 5 amount listed on line 1a. The IRS changed the reporting line for Nonqualified Deferred Compensation plans to line 8t of Form 1040 Schedule 1. The IRS is not asking for an amended return, just that more information be provided for the topic the letter references.
Per the IRS:
If you received a pension or annuity from a nonqualified deferred compensation plan or a nongovernmental section 457(b) plan and it was reported in box 1 of Form W-2, do not include this amount on Form 1040, line 1a. This amount is reported on Schedule 1, line 8t.
