Maybe. Problem will be if spouse has been adudged mentally incompetent, they may not have possession of a firearm. That includes access to firearms. You can discuss the particulars of your circumstances with the BATF firearms technical division for a more specific answer.
Yes, unless you either: (1)Are no longer prohibitted from possessing firearms (due to a pardon or restoration of rights); or (2)The nonconvicted spouse legimately prevents you from having access to the firearms, ie. locking them in something that you don't have access to. The spouse could also face charges of providing you access to firearms.

I take it that the two of you filed separate returns and kept your funds separate. You are probably not responsible for your deceased spouse's federal income tax. However, your deceased spouse's estate is responsible for his or her federal income tax. That is if there is enough money in the estate to pay the taxes. Otherwise, you may need a good tax lawyer.
The estate is responsible for all debts, including taxes. The spouse benefited from the income.
You need to find a lawer who is familiar with firearms law in the location you reside to get a correct answer.
Not unless you are posing a risk to them or the public. Just for having bipolar, no, as long as you can keep it under control.
No, other than what you can afford, what you have room for, and if married, how happy you keep your spouse.
There is no set distance. Basically, a felon cannot have access to or control over a firearm.Added: For instance: You cannot live in the same home where there are firearms. Your spouse (with whom you live) may not have firearms - you cannot hang around with anyone who carries one, or be in a car where there are firearms.
yes, but it would be a federal crime in the USA unless you had his or her permission.
Yes. The state has no control over it. It is a federal procedure.
