Can this balance be postponed since the refund has not been received yet?
The extension to pay the taxes owed is automatic if you have 2019 federal taxes owed. The taxes owed do not have to be paid until July 15, 2020
However, you still must file your 2019 tax return on or before April 15, 2020 to avoid the failure to file penalties.
When filing your 2019 tax return select the option to pay the 2019 tax with a check. Then continue and e-file your tax return.
Then on or before July 15, 2020 go to the IRS payment website and use Direct Pay to the pay the taxes owed - https://www.irs.gov/payments
