The Privacy Act does not allow a spouse to share other spouse's information in health care, financial or government institutions, or any other legal matters UNLESS THE SPOUSE PROVIDES WRITTEN CONSENT FOR OTHER SPOUSE.
However, at times the spouse can write the Power of Attorney for the partner to disclose all his info.
The same applies for his personal mail and emails. These are his personal boundaries which should not be violated.

Legally, you generally cannot open someone else's mail, even if they live with you, unless you have their explicit permission.

It's best to ask your son for permission or have him open his own mail to avoid any potential misunderstandings.
Is it a federal offense to open your spouses mail?
Yes, unless: a) It is addressed to 'resident' or both of you, or b) You have been granted power of attorney for your spouse (this means a signed, notarized document, not an oral agreement or something you drafted on your computer). This also enables you to do other things like sign checks and legally binding documents for them. If you don't meet either of these requirements, then opening your spouse's mail is a crime.
