The facts described in your question do not justify her living there without an

agreement. Receipt of mail is irrelevant. You may have a trespasser removed by

calling the local sheriff or law enforcement.

Since you invited her in, I do not think she would be considered a trespasser. You will have to evict and obtain a court order having the Sheriff remove her.

I like Mr. Martin's answer but I have to agree with Mr. Slater - she may be considered an invitee - I would try it though. Once you are no longer considered an invitee - you are a trespassor.
