Question

Job Reissued W2's--should I mark it as a corrected W2 on my tax return?

So my job reissued W2's because on the original, they did not include their own State ID number. As far as I can tell, my personal information is correct. They had just left Box 15 blank on the original W2's. However, it doesn't look like they issued a W2C, just reissued the previous W2's with box 15 filled in. Should I still check this in TurboTax as a corrected W2 or just input the information as though this was the original W2 form?

No, Enter it as the original. 

I am GUESSING your employer did not file a W-2C with the IRS (they just sent you an updated W-2 with their state ID listed) so the IRS would get confused if you say you have a W-2C when you don't.
