You generally have up to three years to claim your 2015 federal income tax refund. There is no statute of limitations for assessing and collecting 2015 federal income tax due if no return has been filed (a good reason to always file a return).

If you can't afford to pay the back taxes you owe, call the IRS to ask for a reduction due to a hardship, or, create a payment schedule.
