What to do if I’ve filed for divorce from my husband,and he isn’t contesting anything but refuses to sign anything?

We completely agree on how to split our finances, and we have no children. The marital home is for sale (and should close before our case management date), so it’s pretty straight forward. Like I said, he’s not contesting anything but has told me that he will not help me divorce him so he is refusing to sign/return any paperwork. He got served and that was that. If he doesn’t fill out any paperwork (like the Financial Affidavit), will this complicate/stall the process? Can he really just be served and then do nothing else and a judge will grant me the divorce?
