If you have not filed an extension on tax return, can you still get your refund?

Answer 1

I called the IRS a few days ago about this. I asked if the IRS owed me money do I need to file and extention if I needed more time. I was told I did not need to as long as I was absolutely sure they owed me the money. If it was the other way around and I owed them there would be a penalty I would have to pay. So if they owe you you can still get your refund but of course you will need to file first.

Answer 2

Yes. But you won't get any refund until you file.

Answer 3

You can only get your refund if you have filed your 1040!
