In PA, there are 2 types of no-fault divorce, separation and consent. In the latter type, you must wait 90 days after the complaint has been filed and served to consent to the divorce which both parties must do to proceed under that section. In the former type, you need only be separated for at least one year, which appears to be the case here. In that event unless she challenges the separation or seeks economic relief, you can obtain a decree without her consent within 60 days after service of the complaint.
I trust this answers your questions, but do not hesitate to call or email on a free initial basis.
