If you owe still for last year does that automatically get taken out of what you get back this year?

Yes, if you owe to the IRS, any refund from this year will automatically be applied to your account before being refunded to you.

☝️And make sure you DO get a refund cos if not, interest and penalties will continue to accumulate.
