You need to have him take this matter forward, and he needs to hire an attorney and file for divorce. if he has been here for over 1 year, then he should be able to file a divorce action in New Jersey.

To file for divorce in New Jersey one of the married couple must have lived in New Jersey for a year. If the other spouse lives in Mexico, then a copy of the divorce complaint is served upon that spouse by either the local sheriff or police or someone hired for that purpose.

Call me for a reasonable fee.
