    It seems that it was more than just failure to pay:

    The new charges against Hunter Biden include filing a false return and tax evasion felonies, as well as misdemeanor failure to file and failure to pay.

    That said, the maximum sentence for tax evasion is five years, but I don’t know how multiple counts work in this situation.

      You can get the max on each count. Usually that doesn’t happen, unless they didn’t get more counts or higher charges to stick.

      Yeah, but like, they are charging him with the scheme of not failing to pay. OP pointed out others doing the same stuff.

      If he did crimes, good that charges were filed. Seems a bit hypocritical but then what would really be really hypocritical is holding people to a different standard while saying everyone should have the same standard.
