For most people … a $1.1 million debt to the IRS is a REALLY BIG DEAL … but when you’re Lionel Richie and worth an estimated $200 mil … it’s probably just a nuisance.

According to documents obtained by TMZ … Richie owes the federal government $1,130,609.11 in unpaid income tax for 2010.

The singer has been slapped with a lien … which means Uncle Sam can start going after his stuff if he doesn’t fork over the dough ASAP.

We called Lionel’s rep for comment — still waiting for a call back.
