My employer sent an amended W2 the day after I filed, do I need to send in an amendment?

I was notified that box 13 was not marked on my original, when there should have been an X in retirement plan. I do not remember turbotax asking for box 13, so I'm wondering if it is even necessary to re-file. Box 12 information was correct. Where on my 1040A could I see if the box 13 information was correctly entered?

You would only need to amend if you reported a deductible traditional IRA contribution (under Deductions & Credits) and some or all of that contribution is actually not deductible as a result of being covered by a retirement plan at work.
