How would you construct the phrase "for those [follow-up items] that we have not received information back/on/from"? I don't know if this is grammatically correct, or if "received information from" can somehow be turned into a more active tense.
Would appreciate advice on this.

Back, on and from all mean different things. receive... back suggests you are receiving something that you previously had in your possession. In that case it would be more natural to say got... back. Items we have not received info on means items in respect of which we have not received info. Items we have not received info from would only make sense if the items were sending the info - so you probably want on. It might be possible to find a more active way of saying the same thing, but we would need more context - you are receiving, but who is sending?)
