I accidentally listed that someone can claim me as a dependent, and nobody can nor did. Will I still be able to receive the COVID-19 related stimulus of $1,200?

Sorry no, when you checked someone else can claim you, that means you are a dependent. Dependents do not qualify for the stimulus money. You should amend your return. Amended returns must be mailed.
