The IRS figures 2 million Floridians are right with you.

As you look down the barrel of tax day – that would be Thursday – don’t panic. But if you haven’t started your taxes yet, you do need to get moving.

If you need an incentive to buckle down, consider that the federal government has reported that the average tax refund is about 10 percent larger than last year because of an array of new deductions and credits. The credits apply to everything from the purchase of new homes, energy efficiency measures for your home, college tuition, and child care.

Procrastinators keep in mind you’re not alone.
