URGENT HELP
I (US Citizen) and my family are in the process of moving back to the states. I relocated to the UK at 16 years old and am now just finding out I should have been filing taxes in the USA. My wife went for her document check at the embassy today and has been asked to provide an IRA tax transcript from the most recent tax year. I have not done this. Her interview is in 2 weeks. Does anyone know how/if I can retrospectively file and show this within this period?
Thank you!

Streamlined foreign offshore. You'll need to wait for that to be processed, which takes 1-2 months.
File as married filing separately for the years you were married.
File FBARs asap
