There's an 86 percent chance that the average tax refund this year will be higher than the $2,683 average of last year.

A year ago, nearly 10 million tax returns were late and these taxpayers owed more than $103 billion. There's an 83 percent likelihood that the dollar amount will be higher this year.

And the odds - 67 percent - are that electronically filed returns will be 3 million to 5 million higher than last year, when a record 90 million returns were e-filed.
