Of course the "worst" thing is always jail, deportment, seizure of assets, etc.
Well, you certainly have me thoroughly confused. How did you file federal/California taxes in 2014 (and then receive a 1099-G in 2015 for a refund) when your wife has no SSN? Is she a resident alien? Does she have an ITIN?
I think you should seek professional tax advise for solutions to your problem. Good luck.
