When Will Hillary Release Her Tax Returns?

Why I can answer that!  She'll release them once she has the Democratic nomination.  Otherwise, people will find more and more things about her personally that she doesn't want out in the public eye.

It's a classic tactic, employed by John Kerry famously in his 2004 Presidential Election bid. "Elect me and I'll do everything you want".  Same thing here: "Nominate me, and THEN I'll show you my tax returns".

By then it'll be too late.  Besides, why should she open up herself to any more scrutiny then she absolutely has to?  She's already trailing badly and releasing her tax documents will only open up another front of attack on her.

That being said, had she done so long ago, she would be giving the public the illusion that she's being "open and honest".  Now that she's got everyone a little jittery about her, she's not going to take any more risks then she absolutely has to.
