You only get your connects back if the job was closed without hiring by the client or Upwork closes it for violating a policy. If the job expires, it will also be closed but you do NOT get your connects back, but I'm not sure if there's any way to distinguish these cases from the perspective of a freelancer, except by simply noticing some connects back into your account.

Hi MD,
I checked your account and can see on your Connects History page that you were refunded for those jobs that were closed without hire. I also checked the recent job where your proposal was archived, and the job was closed and can confirm that the client hired a freelancer for his project, and has closed the job post.
I can confirm that if a client doesn’t hire and closes their job post, any Connects used to submit a proposal will be returned to you. However, if they do not close the job, no Connects will be returned. In this situation, we continue to encourage the client to hire or close the job, but ask that you consider the cost of Connects as part of your business expenses.
