If your wife worked as a non-resident in MA and you did not, you would need to file separate returns for MA.  You would not put your income on her return. She will file as a Non-Resident for MA. 

If you lived in MA at some point, then you would file as a Resident or Part-Year Resident for MA.

If you ONLY lived and worked in GA, then you will NOT do anything with a MA return for your income.
