A motion to compel is a request to the Court that the other party be forced to file his financial affidavit. There are already rules stating that he/she must do so. However, this Motion would be an attempt to make the court aware that the other party is not doing what they are supposed to do. The court would set a short time frame for the production of this document and any other documents that you have requested from the other side. Additionally, you can ask that the Court award attorney's fees and costs for the necessity of taking this issue to the Court.
