If you got the message "Heads up! You have a W-2C coming" . This was fixed in the newest release on 2/19/2020.
Only the customers who now legitimately will receive a W-2C will still get the pop up.
A W-2c form is used by the United States Internal Revenue Service for tax filing and reporting services. This form is known as a Corrected Wage and Tax Statement form.

I am also getting this message. I am on the latest version. I am using Turbo Tax Home and Business
Check your W2 input screen. Box 4 Social Security Taxes should be 6.2% of Box 3.
My wife is a teacher and has never paid social security. First year this has been an error. I've used Turbotax for at least 20 years. lol
@clear_s, I believe this to be the result of Frmr. President Trump's Tax Deferral. Employers dropped the income tax for a brief period and that will be repaid over time during 2021. Thus the W-2c.
That is correct. But the only employer that I know of that used the deferral was the federal government, including the military. If you are sure you are not getting a W-2c (ask your employer; it is very unlikely), you are safe to file. The error will not prevent e-filing. @LRow @andymanoh @clear_s
If you want to double-check to ensure nothing is afoul with your W-2, verify that box 4 is exactly 6.2% of box 3.
