Republican vice presidential nominee Mike Pence promised in an interview aired on NBC Sunday that he will release his personal tax returns soon. "Donald Trump and I are both going to release our tax returns," Pence said. "I'll release mine in the next week and Donald Trump will be releasing his tax returns at the completion of an audit" currently being conducted by the IRS.

Pushed by interviewer Chuck Todd as to whether Trump's audit will be completed before Election Day, Pence tentatively added, "We'll see." The IRS says it does not object to Trump releasing his information before the audit is finished.
