Yes.

But you will need to prepare an amended return to make the correction. Please see the link below for instructions on how to prepare the amended return.

How to amend my return?

You should prepare your amended return as soon as possible. You can only file an amended return within three years from the date you filed your tax return or two years after you paid the tax due, using the latest date of those.

What exactly do you need? A blank tax form, federal or state? If state, which state, which form? If federal which form?

Or are you referring to a tax return that you did using TurboTax? If so -

To access your current or prior year tax returns sign onto the TurboTax website with the userID you used to create the account - https://myturbotax.intuit.com/

Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and on the section Your tax returns & documents click on Show. Click on the Year and Click on Download/print return (PDF)

If you used the desktop CD/Download editions installed on your computer, the only copy of your tax data file and any PDF's will be on the computer where the return was created. TurboTax does not store online any returns completed using the desktop editions.

Or go to this IRS website for free federal tax return transcripts - https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript

For a fee of $50 you can get a complete federal tax return from the IRS by completing Form 4506 - http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f4506.pdf
