Still no federal return

I still haven't received my federal return (i filed on jan 30) and the IRS sent me a letter explaining why. It says I didn't file for my 2016 taxes, but I didn't make enough so I didn't think I needed to file.
Anyway, it says if I don't file or reply they will do it for me, so I haven't said anything, but now with this virus and not working, how can I get in contact with the IRS? Their live help isn't available when I call.

Also, what would this mean with the stimulus package??

To contact the IRS, please see the directions below:

How do I contact the Internal Revenue Service (IRS)?

Note: 

You will need to follow the prompts in order to speak to an IRS agent. There is a high call volume this time of year.

When calling the IRS do NOT choose Option 1.   

Choose Option 2 after you choose the language.   

Then Press 1    

Then Press 3   

Then Press 2, it will then transfer you to an agent.  

 

Please see the information from the IRS below, regarding the stimulus checks:
