2016 tax return was not sent

Filing a 2016 tax return for a tax refund will not be paid. The 2016 tax return had to be filed on or before April 15, 2020 for a tax refund.

However, if you filed the 2016 tax return before 04/15/2020 and never received the refund you can request a trace on the refund from the IRS.
