I am the defendant in a Penalty Civil Suit with the US as the plaintiff. I have settled with the Feds, who are about to get a $5 million judgment. They are allowing me to keep a life estate in our home and my social security. My wife, who was not a defendant, is a joint tenant and must sign over her half of the property. My questions are: (1) Can the Feds take her IRA? (2) Can they take her assets or any future income? (3) If I die, can they claim her Life Insurance? Additionally, since they have a large judgment, they want me to inventory everything I own valued at over $500. Will they take items like the gas range, refrigerator, or cars? If I trade one of the cars in and buy a new used car with a lien, what will they do? Finally, our home is in a Family Limited Partnership. I was told we are not eligible for the California Homestead because the home is not in our name. Is that true?
