The IRS placed a tax lien on Hunter Biden for $112,805 in unpaid taxes from 2015, according to records the Daily Caller News Foundation obtained. Biden served on the boards of the Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings and the Chinese private equity firm BHR Partners in 2015. Biden has been accused of refusing to provide basic information about his finances in an ongoing paternity case in Arkansas.
The IRS placed a tax lien on Hunter Biden seeking $112,805 in unpaid taxes from 2015, according to records the Daily Caller News Foundation obtained.
The federal agency issued the previously unreported lien in November 2018 and it seeks unpaid taxes for a year in which Biden, the son of former Vice President Joe Biden, served on the boards of the Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma Holdings and the Chinese private equity firm BHR Partners.
“We have made a demand for payment of this liability, but it remains unpaid,” the IRS stated in the lien notice, which it filed with the Washington, D.C., Recorder of Deeds. “Therefore, there is a lien in favor of the United States on all property and rights to property belonging to this taxpayer for the amount of these taxes.”
The tax lien was issued against Hunter Biden and his ex-wife, Kathleen Biden, but was delivered to the same address Hunter Biden has on file with Connecticut’s Judicial Branch, an address that is also linked to his law firm, Owasco PC.
It does not appear that Hunter Biden has resolved his tax debt to the IRS. No corresponding lien release form has been filed with the Washington, D.C., Recorder of Deeds.
Washington, D.C., also placed a tax lien against Hunter and Kathleen Biden for $48,929 in unpaid income taxes for 2015. Records show the city released the lien in August 2017.
Hunter Biden was appointed to the board of Burisma in 2014, a post he held until 2019. Hunter Biden did not receive any direct compensation from Burisma — rather, the Ukrainian company wired funds to Rosemont Seneca Bohai (RSB), an American firm controlled by Hunter Biden’s longtime business partner Devon Archer. Between June 2014 and October 2015, RSB wired a total of $708,302 to Hunter Biden each month for undisclosed purposes while RSB was receiving funds from Burisma.
During that 17-month time frame, in June 2015, Rosemont Seneca Bohai obtained a 20% equity stake in BHR Partners, the Chinese private equity firm that Hunter Biden served on the board of starting in 2013.

Hunter Biden announced in October that he would resign from BHR’s board by the end of that month, but Chinese business records the DCNF accessed on Dec. 29 still list him as a member of the firm’s board. (RELATED: Business Records Show Hunter Biden Remains On Board Of Chinese Equity Firm)
Kathleen Biden filed for divorce from Hunter Biden in 2016. She said in court documents that they faced a “shocking and overwhelming” amount of debts, including “maxed-out credit card debt, double mortgages on both real properties they own, and tax debt of at least $313,970.”
Kathleen Biden accused Hunter Biden of spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on “his own interests (including drugs, alcohol, prostitutes, strip clubs and gifts for women with whom he had sexual relations) while leaving the family with no funds to pay legitimate bills.”
They finalized their divorce in 2017.
The revelation that the IRS is seeking $112,805 in unpaid taxes from Hunter Biden comes as he’s the subject of an ongoing paternity case in Arkansas from former stripper Lunden Roberts, who’s seeking child support for their 16-month-old child.
Hunter Biden stated under oath in a Nov. 27 court document that he has been unemployed and has had no monthly income since May.
In a motion to compel discovery filed in December, Roberts said Hunter Biden has avoided his “natural and legal duty to support his child by failing to provide basic information about his income, finances, and lifestyle.”
“[I]t should, by now, be abundantly clear to the Court that the defendant is not going to provide any of his discoverable financial information unless the court forces him to do so,” the filing read.
This guy is the gift that keeps giving. Now imagine his name was Don Jr.
...and appalled!
Why are we reading about this now?
Sounds like a gofund me page or book deal is being solicited to take care of it.
I know there’s a quote out there from Gropin’ Joe a few years back where he equated paying taxes with patriotism.
What the heck? Dude didn’t pay his taxes?
He can ask Al Sharpton for tax advice. Al seems not to have faced any legal sanctions from his unpaid tax bill.
And yet he can rent a cool pad in California for 14k a month and knock up everyone he meets.
Daddy should defend his deadbeat son’s tax evasion on the campaign trail. Should be fun!
He should be why asked why everyone else needs to pay higher taxes while Hunter is a scofflaw.
This is whom Democrats impeached Trump to protect. Oh my!
He clearly has unreported income he hasn’t disclosed to the IRS. That alone is a felony.

So he’s right up there with Jessie Jackson (senior and junior) and Al Not-So-Sharpton. He’d make a fine dem pol.
“Nothing he did was illegal.”
Yet Trump asking about their corruption was an impeachable offense. Oy vey!
“This is whom Democrats impeached Trump to protect. “
Trump has not been impeached.
That is not in the article.
My son did nothing wrong. - Joe Biden

No. I’m not suggesting it was. I’m just parroting what the Dems have been telling us for 5 months.
Bam! Knew he would neglect to pay.
