Can I claim my son if he turned 18 6/29/18? He was collecting my husbands pension after my husband died 2/8/18

Yes, if he still meets the requirements to be claimed as a dependent. 

TurboTax can guide you through those requirements as you enter his information in your return.  Turning the age of 18 does not automatically disqualify him as your dependent.
