If I left the marital home in March and now divorcing, is spousal support back dated to when we separated?

Spousal Support can be made retroactive to the date of the filing of your Request for Orders for Spousal Support (or any date thereafter that the Judge determines). This is unlike Child Support which can be made retroactive to the date of filing of the Dissolution or Separation case (not just the Request for Orders), however, even with child support the Judge usually makes orders only for the time since the RFO is filed, instead of the initial Petition, unless there are unusual circumstances making the earlier date warranted.

Can I buy a house if my spouse and I are married but living separately?

I would see an attorney before you do this, it would appear that you are planning for a divorce and therefore it would be cleaner if you took care of the old business first.

Do I need to file a response in order to get my 50% of assets?

My guess is he is hiding assets and wants a quick settlement. Talk to an attorney. You can reach an agreement and get it through the court without paying a filing fee but that $500 would probably be well spent on a couple of hours advice to ensure that you are getting a fair deal. If he has always handled the money are you sure he has told you about all of it.
