If you selected "someone else can claim me as their dependent" on your return, then that makes it unlikely that you’ll receive a stimulus check.
This indicated to the IRS that you couldn't claim yourself on your return, and you were a dependent on someone else's return. And if you’re a dependent of someone else, you’re not eligible for the payment.
Please note that the stimulus payment is an advance on a tax credit for the 2020 tax year. If you indicated you were a dependent on your 2019 return, but not on your 2020 return, you will not receive a stimulus payment this year, but will receive one when you file your taxes next year.
You can amend your 2019 tax return to change your answer, but you would not get the payment until after the return has processed. And, according to the IRS's IRS urges taxpayers to use electronic options; outlines online assistance page, the IRS isn't currently processing mailed paper returns, and amended returns must be filed on paper and mailed.
Please see the TurboTax Help article "How to amend (change or correct) a return you already filed" for instruction on how to amend your previously-filed tax return, if that’s what you decide to do.
