What is the name of your state?Oregon

I am really confused and would really appriciate if someone would be able to explain or tell me how it would be possible for my employer to change my earnings on my w-2 during the year after I have filed taxes on my original earnings they stated I had earned.

To be more specific last year my w-2 said I earned 11,528.18 but this year when I downloaded a copy from the site my employer uses to do our w-2 online the earnings have changed quite a an amount to 14740.18 and I was never even informed. I know that I have noticed indiscrempencies in my pay stubs if I have had to request any of them to be reissused for proof of income for one reason or another but they were only a small amount compared to this. The 11,528.18 came from a copy of my taxes last year I saved in a file on my pc the 14,740.18 came from a downloaded copy from the w2express site. What do I do about this and why is this like this if anyone has any idea or information please please let me know.

Thank you for anything you can tell me.

What you do about it is ask your employer why the change, and where is your W-2C form. They may have found additional taxable fringe benefits provided by the company that required an update.
