Your California registration denial info is very pertinent.
It isn't, really. There was a previous recall that involved reflashing the ECUs to "fix" the emissions issue, except that it didn't. Until it was shown that it didn't solve the problem, CA was requiring owners to have that reflash done before they could renew their registration. That's no longer the case. See https://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/vw_info/vw_faq.htm:
A 2014/2015 recall for your vehicle with the recall numbers 23O6/23N4/23N5 was initiated prior to the VW court settlement. This recall in no longer in place as a result of the Consent Decree finalized by the court on October 25, 2016. The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) registration hold for your vehicle has been removed. Please see the scenarios below for appropriate registration procedures to receive your current registration and tags.

EPA is just butthurt because VW outsmarted them and VW owners are just cashing in. Buyback is ludicrous. No wonder VW is giving up on the US and Canada market. Thanks to you smucks.
VW owners are cashing in? LUNCH MEAT

Thanks to the sharks ~~ Amen

If vw leaves the NA market ~~ so be it:D
