    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.
