Here's what you can expect back from Uncle Sam.

April 15th is right around the corner, which means you should have already filed your taxes, or you should be in the process of filing.

Since tax refunds are predicted to take longer this year, the earlier you file, the better. For a better idea of when exactly your refund will show up, take a look at this table.

Although you shouldn't be banking on too hefty of a refund, it's nice to get a little money back in your pocket.

To get an idea of just how much you can expect back, Debt.com created a map using data from the IRS that shows the average tax return in each state. 

According to the data, the IRS collected close to $3.1 trillion in gross taxes in 2014 and issued almost 118.7 million refunds, which amounted to more than $373.5 billion.
