It depends on whether after completing your return you overpaid your tax liability and are entitled to a refund. A review of your return and tax papers may result in a finding that you are entitled to a refund from the IRS. In that case an amended return would have to be filed to claim your refund. However if no refund is warranted then you won't get one from the IRS. The best advice for you is to take your tax information to. A CPA or other tax preparer for a second opinion.
