Wow... Yeah, it's always normal to feel bad when you turn in a family member for doing something, but I think that you definitely did the right thing.
The real question is how does your husband feel about your turning his mother in to the feds? I hope he is understanding, as it could put a real strain on your relationship with him. I know if my wife did that to my mother without discussing the issue with me first, I might just divorce her.
Regardless, sounds like your mother-in-law is a real P.O.S., and will likely get what she deserves for her illegal behaviors. As a hard-working tax payer, I'm glad to hear that you turned her in.
No, hubby is fine about it. His mother left him in the garden as a newborn in the middle of winter, and he eventually got adopted out. Hubby never met her till he was 29, and wishes he never had. And, yes, I did discuss it with him prior to potting her. In my opinion, as a business owner and taxpayer, I was getting sick and tired of my taxes and everyone elses in New Zealand paying to buy her a house, when she has sat at home for the last 20 years on social security, and only has two years to go on her mortgage. If the govt force the sale of her house to recoup that money, and use it to support genuine cases of hardship, then I am all to happy to see her world come crashing down. She has been a theif, fraudster and liar for far, far to long.

With any luck, she'll be doing some jail time!
