How do I response to 'Corrected W-2'? I received a 2018 W-2c but now it is 2019 tax return and I do not think I should filling this 2018 W-2c here, do I? Not clear.

What changed in your 2018 W-2C?  Do you know why it changed?

Depending on what happened, you either ignore it, or you file an amended 2018 tax return.  The corrected 2018 W-2C does not get entered on your 2019 tax return.

Thank you for the explanation! They reported about 25k more than I really earned in 2018 and they very later issued a W-2c to correct that. But I don't think I should put anything in this W-2c into my current 2019 tax return form, am I correct?

Correct.  The question "did you get a W-2C" applies to the current (2019) tax season only.

Then, depending on whether you already dealt with this excess income situation last year, you might need to file an amended 2018 return, in which case you would check yes for W-2c on that return.  If you need to file an amended 2018 return, you need a copy of Turbotax for 2018 to install on your own computer. There are a few ways to get this depending on how you filed last year.
