Can I claim myself a independent and claim my dependent the following year?

Life changes each year so being claimed as a dependent one year and not another is not a concern. However, if somebody else is claiming you this year and you have already filed, they will not be able to claim you without mailing in their return and you amending your return. You need to let that person know there is an issue and discuss what to do.
