More than $1 million was offered for the capture of Charlie Kirk’s killer hours after the influencer was assassinated, and the big question now is whether suspect Tyler Robinson’s own father could collect — or even if he would try to.

Robinson, 22, was turned over to authorities by his dad Matt on Sept. 11, the day after Kirk’s killing, when the father and his wife recognized their son from pictures released by the FBI showing the suspect on surveillance footage.

Questions online have swirled about whether Robinson’s father would be eligible for the reward, given his offspring is accused of the heinous killing, if he even attempted to net it.

The paying out of reward money to crime and terrorism tipsters is usually managed by Rewards for Justice, a program under the US State Department.

Actually getting paid for a reward is quite a process, requiring those eligible to navigate layers of red tape.

According to Rewards for Justice’s FAQ, the individual who provides the information leading to an arrest or conviction cannot nominate themselves.

Rather, a US investigating agency such as the FBI, Department of War, or a US embassy abroad must nominate the would-be recipient.

An interagency committee then evaluates the info provided by the agency who nominated the awardee.

The merits of paying the reward are discussed, and the committee presents a recommendation to the secretary of state.

But the committee’s recommendation is not binding — the secretary of state has “complete discretion” over whether to authorize a reward and can also change its amount.

In June, the bureau offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Vance Boelter for the targeted shootings of Minnesota lawmakers and their families.

At the end of last year, the FBI, along with the NYPD, also offered a $60,000 reward for the capture of accused UnitedHealthcare assassin Luigi Mangione.

But the McDonald’s employee in Altoona, Pa., whose tip led to his arrest has reportedly never been paid.

The original $100,000 offered by the FBI for the capture of Kirk’s killer has ballooned to over $1 million as private supporters lent their own funds to the search effort, including Trump adviser Alex Bruesewitz, conservative activist Robby Starbuck and billionaire Bill Ackman.

Bruesewitz and Starbuck each pledged to kick in $25,000, while Ackman peeled off a cool $1 million from his bankroll, bringing the total reward to $1.15 million.

In a social-media post following Robinson’s arrest, once it came to light that his father turned him in, Ackman said he still planned on paying the reward “if it is earned to whomever the FBI indicates provided the information that led to Tyler’s arrest.”

He said that if Matt Robinson’s father was ever found to have “been involved” or “acted negligently” in contributing to Kirk’s death, “civil litigation or criminal prosecution will reverse any unjust compensation.”

Reached by text message, Starbuck told The Post he hasn’t yet heard from the FBI regarding payment of the reward but said Matt Robinson should turn it down if it’s offered.

“If he does try to claim it, he should absolutely donate it to Erika Kirk or TPUSA. Assuming he has the honor to not claim the reward, I will be donating that pledge and a bit more directly to a fund for the Kirk family,” he said.

Reached by email, the FBI told The Post it “typically does not comment on whether or not reward money is paid, or to whom.”
