How far back can you submit returns or amended returns and still get a refund? You can go back three years from the original deadline of the tax return to get a full refund. After three years, you will not be able to obtain a refund. It is important if changes are needed on an already filed return that these changes are made within the three year time frame.
Tax Refund. If you file your claim within 3 years after filing your return, the credit or refund cannot be more than the part of the tax paid within the 3 years (plus the length of any extension of time granted for filing your return) before you filed the claim.lthough you filed your claim within 3 years from the date you filed your original return, the refund is limited to $200. The estimated tax of $1,000 was paid before the 3 years plus the 4-month extension period.
