The amount paid to the IRS is not to be included on your return, just as a refund is not considered income. Also, these are separate from your 2016 taxes and not associated. If you will have a tax liability for 2016 you can contact the IRS to add the amount to your current installment plan, if you will receive a refund, they will add that amount to your balance and if the refund is more than the balance owed you will receive the difference in a check.
