Can I request my tax refunds if I am in Lima, Perú? I want to start the process of my work and travel program of 2017.

Yes, if you file with an international address, the government will mail your refund to the address that you provide on the tax return. 

However, checks that are mailed internationally will take a while longer to receive, after the IRS has processed your return. 

To check the status of your refund after filing, go to Where’s My Refund. If you haven't received it within 45 days after they specify on that site that they have mailed it, you need to contact the IRS by calling the International Taxpayer Service Call Center at 267-941-1000 (Monday-Friday, 6 am-11 pm EST). 

And you can use your State Department of Revenue's website to check status of state tax refund. Choose your state here How do I track my state refund? and it will give you steps to track the status.
