Yes, if you can be claimed as a dependent then you cannot receive the stimulus payment. Please see Who can I claim as my dependent? for details.

 

If you cannot be claimed as a dependent then you will need to file an amended return (1040X). The IRS will only accept amended returns via mail. Usually, it takes up to 16 weeks to process Form 1040X but the IRS is currently not processing any paper returns. Therefore, it might be taking even longer. 

 

Please see How do I amend a 2019 return in TurboTax?
