If you have not already e-filed your return then go back to the "Wages and Income" section and edit the W2 topic. Edit the specific W2 that has been corrected.  Leave any information that has not changed as is and only update the boxes that have changed information.  

 

If you have already filed then sign in to your TurboTax account and select the amend option.  Be sure you have a copy of your originally filed return as you will need information from that.  Follow the TurboTax prompts to start the amend process.  Ultimately you will return to the "Wages and Income" section and make the changes as outlined above.   

 

If you need to amend here is a link that may help.
