USA (and India) tax filing (FILING, not paying) would determine whether (or to whom, and how much) you would pay in taxes. Find out your filing requirements first.

Ask your immigration sponsor whether he/she would claim you and your wife as their dependents in their US tax return for the tax year 2016.
Ask your immigration sponsor about your mandatory US HEALTHCARE insurance coverage, and how it is paid.
