More details to this question:
I filed a divorce complaint in 2011, but have decided to postpone pursuing the divorce further until 2016. Will the date of separation be 2011 or the date in which I either refile or resume the divorce?

If both sides agree to a consent divorce, you need to wait 90 days from filing the complaint. If one side doesn't consent, you need to wait 2 years from the date of filing the complaint to push matters toward divorce. Unless your spouse is agreeing to a consent divorce, the date of separation is key.
