I assume that you have NZ Residence or Citizenship.
Whether or not you have married, or the 2-year separation period has expired or not, is irrelevant. You do not need to wait until you are married.
You can sponsor him now so long as you can show that you have spent a certain period of time actually living with him - we recommend at least 4 months before you apply.
13 years should not be an excessive age gap.
Our firm does a great many Partnership visa applications and could assist you.
