Can I change my 1040? I claimed myself as exemption but I lived with daughter all year and she wants to claim me? Can I fix this on my taxes?

Your screen name suggests that you work. How much was your 2018 income?
Just living with your daughter isn't enough for her to claim you.

If you are being claiming as your daughter's dependent, you have to revisit the My Info section of TurboTax and edit your personal information to indicate that you can be claimed as a dependent by someone else (see attached screenshot).

If you have already filed and your return has been accepted, you'll need to amend your return to make that change.

Please see the following TurboTax FAQ for instructions on how to amend your tax return in TurboTax.
