If you expect to get a refund, you do not need to file an extension. You can file it later and still get the full refund. If you expect to owe money, you will need to pay today in order to avoid interest and penalties, even if you file the extension.

So if you are going to owe, be sure to file that extension today, and send a payment with it.
