Chris Tucker is facing serious money woes with Uncle Sam on the hunt for millions owed.
According to court documents obtained by Breaking Celebrity News, recently, the Rush Hour actor was hit with a federal tax lien by the IRS. =
The document states Tucker failed to pay them $253,698 for the year 2019. The massive tax bill is interesting given the comedian didn’t have a bunch of projects that went down during the 12-month period.
Regardless, the lien is on top of the $9.2 million Tucker already owes the government. As Breaking Celebrity News first reported, on June 4, the IRS accused him of failing to pay taxes for multiple years.
The breakdown of the debt was listed as $4,489,647.01 for 2002, $2,124,082.86 for 2006, $2,341,269.29 for 2008 and $468,598 for 2010.
The grand total of the lien came to $9,423,597. When you add in the extra $253k, the new total comes out to a whopping $9,677,295.
