Tasks -For Outlook 2016, Is there a way to create folders either under My Tasks or Other Tasks
For Outlook 2016, Is there a way to create folders either under My Tasks or Other Tasks on the left side, that will pull tasks into the folder based on a category filter. I have tried to no avail. I do not want to create views for each category( i have done that and it ok) . I prefer to use folder on the left side, if possible.

No. You can create separate Task folders for each category and move tasks into them, but thats not really a filter... views or instant search would be the way to do it with one folder for all tasks.
Both "My Tasks" and "Other tasks" are placeholders, or "Folder groups". You can simply switch to the folder view (CTRL+6) and create a subfolder under your Tasks folder. Or, right-click any of the folders under "My tasks" and select "New folder".
