After you file

Yes, you can amend that return and should as you will be allowed a larger deduction and owe less taxes.

First, I would wait until your return has been accepted.

Then you will need to prepare an amendment to select that you cannot be claimed as a dependent and are not being claimed. The amendment forms will not be available until the Form 1040-X is finalized (mid-March)

The IRS does not accept e-filed amendments so you would need to print out and send in that amendment. 

The directions for filing an amendment will be here once the Form 1040-X is finalized.
