You're saying that if I had filed, I would have exactly 3 years from the day I filed the return to claim the refund right?
I haven't filed my return yet so I'm hoping that this is irrelevant in my case.
Can you confirm if the lookback period that determines the max refund I can claim does go back 3.5 years since I filed for the extension? @MindyB
the timeline is as follows:
1. Estimated Tax payments made in 2021.
2. Extension filed in 2022 April 15 2022.
3. Extension payment made on April 20 2022.
4. Another payment made in Oct 2022.
5. Have no filed return yet
If I file on Oct 15 2025, will I be eligible to claim refunds from all of the payments I have made during 2021 and 2022? or will I be limited to payments made past Oct 15 2022 (which is past all dates I made tax payments and therefore I lose ability to claim refund)
