Can I get money that was withheld from my 2018 tax refund (for 2019 estimated taxes) returned? I am not required to pay 2019 est. taxes.

the only way to get back any 2019 estimated tax payments or a 2018 overpayment applied to 2019 is to wait until you  file your 2019 return.  don't file too early. i've noticed that many early filers (late jan to early feb 2019) for 2018 are complaining they have still not gotten their refunds and it is almost May
