Yes you can put $1 in for her wages in box 1 in the tax program, so you can electronically file?
The IRS may look at it, but do not do anything. File your return and then wait. Your situation may seem to be unique, but it happens many thousands of times with the IRS.
If the IRS were to contact you, you would then be able to give your explanation. Sending a proactive note would only complicate maters. The IRS needs a paper trail to follow and it starts with them sending a request for information.
An IRS notice like this is only a request for information. It is important that you respond, but it does not put you on a blacklist. This is a technical mater it is not criminal.
