Hi,
Myself (in New Jersey) & wife (in INDIA) living separately for the past 7 months and not willing to live together.
Do we need to wait for 18 months (law) for no fault divorce in New Jersey State? Please advice.

Yes, the other attorneys are correct, you can file for divorce based on irreconcilable differences for 6 months.
I keep seeing questions like yours on this bulletin board.
Now, don't take this wrong, but let me summarize:
you are in the middle of a divorce.
You have a job. You may have a house. you may have savings, pension, credit card bills, and other things to deal with. Your spouse may have a job.
you may have a child (children), and child support and college tuition needs to be paid. That is measured in tens of thousand of dollars.
Nothing that an attorney can say over this bulletin board can come close to helping you solve your problems. Careless actions by you will likely cost you thousands of dollars, make your life more difficult, and possibly cause additional harm to the child.
Hire an attorney. Go see an experienced divorce attorney located reasonably near you, and pay the attorney to review your situation carefully with you, and give you some guidance.
If you would like, give me a call; I am in northern New Jersey. I will be happy to discuss this with you; the telephone consultation will be free.
