Your divorce should have addressed this. Yes, if the house was given to you in the divorce you can refi (you should have been ordered to do so) and she/he will need to sign a quit claim deed as part of the process (this too should have been in the property settlement/decree.

Maybe if your new house is community property.In a typical divorce case, your attorney will ask for temporary orders during the pendency of the case.  Temporary orders typically include awarding one party exclusive use and possession of a house and, most often, a motor vehicle.  In the absence of a protective order due to domestic violence, you likely will not have much luck excluding your husband from a residence that is community property unless and until temporary orders are entered awarding your exclusive use and possesion of the home.

Can retirement earned prior to marriage be taken in divorce since I paid 3 out of 33 years to social security while married?

Social Security is governed by federal law and will not be divided in a divorce. Private retirement funds can be divided but what was acquired prior to marriage is separate property. I suggest you hire a lawyer.
