What is Amber Portwood’s net worth? ‘Teen Mom’ star owes $59K in unpaid taxes to California government
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Amber Portwood, well-known for her role on the reality show 'Teen Mom', has a net worth of $10,000, as per Celebrity Net Worth.
Amber has recently been faced with a new financial burden as she now owes over $59,000 in tax lien to the government. This revelation comes after a recent lien was placed against her, as reported exclusively by In Touch.
Despite residing in Indiana, Amber was notified of the state tax lien on April 18, indicating that she owes $59, 220 in unpaid California state taxes for the year 2020. Interestingly, the address listed as Amber's "last known address" on the documents is the Malibu mansion where her ex and baby daddy Andrew Glennon resided with his family. However, it is important to note that Andrew's name is not associated with the income in question.
The 34-year-old MTV star received a new tax lien from the State of California on April 19, amounting to $59, 220, as per court records. This lien was filed by the Los Angeles County Court in Norwalk, California.
Based on the tax lien documents that The Ashley was able to obtain, it appears that Amber is facing a lien either for Personal Income Tax related to her earnings in California or for Corporation Tax.
The lien documents specify that Amber's outstanding debt will continue to accumulate additional fees and interest until it is fully repaid. Furthermore, it has the potential to impact the ownership status of the property owned by Amber at the present time.
“Said lien attaches to the property and rights to such property now owned or later acquired by the taxpayer,” the court documents state.

In the previous year, Amber's fellow 'Teen Mom' cast member Maci Bookout faced a similar financial issue, as she was also served with various tax liens for income she earned in California.
Despite being a resident of Tennessee, Maci owed over $26,000 to the state of California. This year, Maci's tax troubles escalated when she received two new federal tax liens, amounting to a staggering total of over $150,000.
Along with a tax lien of $49,383 filed against her on February 2, Maci and her husband Taylor McKinney were hit with another lien for $105,346.
