Non-collectable status does not mean that you do not have a tax debt and owe taxes, it merely means that at the present time the IRS has deemed the taxes not collectable. At some future time they could always change this status and activate collection efforts against you for taxes owed. While you have a debt owed in back taxes this amount will stay on your account and therefore any refunds you are owed will still be applied to this debt. I have seen people in the past who don't want to file returns or have taxes withheld if they aren't going to get a refund but this is rather stupid as the debt is still their. If you cannot pay it right now at least keep filing returns and let the refunds be applied to reduce your debt. You will be penalized if you don't and your debt will just continue to grow with penalties and interest.

What is important to know about federal tax refunds?

It is important to know that you are not guaranteed a federal tax refund. If you believe you will receive a refund after filing your taxes, you can check your status about three days after you file to confirm whether or not your file was accepted or not from the IRS if you do it online or a couple of weeks if you mail it in. You can go to "where's my Refund" on the IRS website to track your refund as well. Refunds generally take longer to receive the closer to tax deadline (April 15th) as well.
