Two-time Academy Award winner Robert De Niro has reportedly been hit with a $6.4 million tax lien by the Internal Revenue Service.
Mr. De Niro, who has an estimated worth of over $200 million, owes the IRS $6,410,449.20 in connection with his personal 1040 filing for 2013, the Smoking Gun first reported.
The Feb. 3 lien lists Mr. De Niro’s residence as a Manhattan condo that was developed by the actor and his real estate partners.
According to the IRS, the agency will file a lien against a taxpayer’s property when “you neglect or fail to pay a tax debt. The lien protects the government’s interest in all your property, including real estate, personal property and financial assets,” the Smoking Gun reported.
The lien was assessed in November with New York City’s Department of Finance.
