It will be close to 3 years(by april) since you are seperated from wife and child. The wife will not be eligible to claim maintenance if she has deserted you. Better send notice for restitution of conjugal rights in the court where you reside now. If she comes back, well and good. Or else you will need to proceed with divorce. You need not pay maintenance till court issues you a decree and from what you said, it is a case of your wife deserting you and hence she cannot claim maintenance.
