I asked myself what SO could possibly be thinking, to put connect in this position. I myself would not feel treasured if I were in her shoes.
And this is the SO who, in June, was partying with co-workers on his 30th birthday rather than reserving any time that evening for connect. But then again, perhaps the SO, though 30, is tone deaf and/or immature. Some might give him the benefit of the doubt.
Still, if I were connect, I would not feel treasured under this arrangement and therefore I myself would not accept it. If the co-worker is moving in, I would stay with my parents.

I agree with divine. Though I would ask for the money back, I could accept that the money, in reality, was a contribution to helping this person out, if that is what I felt was the right thing to do.
One other thing to consider is what legal rights you are granting the co-worker by allowing her to move in. This should be discussed with an attorney. It could be that it is, as a practical matter, nigh unto impossible to evict her once she is there.
