Yes. You can actually file for a refund for the current year and two years previous. Right now you can file for a refund on tax years 2008, 2009, and 2010. You can also file for a refund on 2007 if and only if you filed for an extension in 2007 which gives you until October 15th to file for the 2007 refund. If you did not file an extension in 2007 then your time to request a refund expired on April 15th.

What is the file extension What is the file extension
It all depends on how you file. If you file the standard "mail-in" way, expect a refund in 4-6 weeks. If you do them online or with a tax professional, the wait time is usually two weeks. Some tax professionals can file what is known as a "Refund Anticipation Loan", or RAL for short. For a fee, you can get your tax refund the next day, sometimes within hours. Be noted, however, that these are actual bank loans on your tax refund and not an actual refund itself.
No, you don't need to file an extension if you don't owe the IRS any money. You only need to file an extension if you need more time to pay. The current law is you have three years to file for a refund and after that you forfeit it to the IRS. The IRS does not charge penalties to people that are owed refunds even if they are filing after due date (usually April 15). Just make sure you file within the 3 years. But if you owe money, even if you file an extension, if you do NOT pay by April 15, then you will owe interest and penalties on the money you owe. The extension is form 4868 and can be filed online through IRS.gov e-file, or by mailing in the form. The extension is NOT an extension for time to PAY, it is just an extension for time to file. Even if you are owed a refund, the IRS says that you are "required" to file if you made over the standard deduction. But in all reality, if they owe you money, they don't want to see you get it. If they owe you money, they don't care when or if you file, but they do like to keep tabs on you. There will be no penalties.
Assuming there are no errors in the federal tax refund. One can expect a refund within eight to ten weeks. This time can be shorten if one decides to file electronically.
