Since you are married, your only choices are Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately. You CANNOT file as Single.
If your wife is a legal permanent resident she is automatically subject to US taxes and should already have a SSN or ITIN. Just file a joint return.
If your wife is a non-resident alien, you must jointly agree to have her world-wide income from all sources taxed by the US. Attach a joint statement, signed by both of you to that effect to your joint return. If she doesn't already have an ITIN, attach Form W-7 to your joint return along with the required proof of identity and send the whole package to the Austin, TX Service Center (not Philadelphia as stated on W-7 form). The IRS will process the W-7, apply her ITIN to your return, and then process the return.

It does not matter that she is not a Citizen in order to pay and file your taxes. If she has income and a social security number (valid for work) then you file as married joint.

the u . s . has some wonderful rules (adequate to maintain uk radio comedy exhibits going for hours on end) so examine with the IRS, from a uk point of view as long as you're paying taxes in the rustic you're resident in then it is high quality. £10,500 is especially for national coverage (to pay for the NHS) and somewhat tax approximately £20 to £forty I could think of except you're proceeding to return to the States in the foreseeable destiny I shouldn't think of there is any Taxes to pay. while you're going back to the States for any length of time then you definately must be eligible as a ~non dom~ (non domiciled resident) in the united kingdom and ought to no longer could pay taxes right here in any respect.
