Can I get my tax free deductions back with a social security and retirement income since I am a widow since 2016?

I know how to file returns, I have been doing it for several years and I know where to put things. I just want to know if I can file my returns on turbo tax?

Yes, you can file, as long as you have income apart from Social Security, which as a stand alone income, is not taxable. If you are under the filing requirement, you will get all your withholding back.
