What has been the impact of DOMA?
The Defense of Marriage Act ("DOMA") prohibits federal recognition of same-sex marriage. As a result of DOMA, same-sex married couples pay more taxes because they must file as single. If an employer provides health coverage to a same-sex spouse, the worker must pay tax on that benefit. A same-sex spouse can be deported and cannot collect social security. Same-sex spouses are not eligible for benefits under ERISA or FMLA. The same-sex spouse of a member of the US Military does not get any healthcare or housing benefits. If the servicemember is killed in war, the spouse gets no benefits. Opposite-sex spouses can live on base and automatically get military ID cards. This is not true of same-sex spouses.

Openly communicating with your spouse about the situation is important to get a better understanding of what might have happened.

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).

In community property states, both spouses generally have equal ownership rights over property acquired during the marriage. As such, one spouse typically cannot sell community property without the consent of the other spouse.

It's essential to consult local laws and potentially seek legal advice for specific situations.
Can an employer retro payroll deduction for health insurance because you did not add your spouse for 4 months?
Yes they can and they may have to in order for the insurer to allow your spouse to be added. Spouses can be added to a group plan during open or annual enrollment, or when certain changes happen such as the spouse loses a job. You can't simply add a spouse at a whim. By paying the four months premiums, you are effectively adding your spouse when you would have been allowed to. The insurer is trying to protect itself against people joining the plan when they have a medical expense to pay, and then dropping out when they recover.
