Furlough staff still receive payslips where the tax is deducted as normal.

Its not a public fund and you are fully entitled of it without breaching the terms of your visa.

As mentioned above, it's not necessarily an immigration issue.

If not already done, you can have a look here at the eligibility. You should also check your employer's policy on it.

Thanks a lot,and may I also ask about my upcoming visa with regard in financial requirements when applying extension 2.5 yrs,my husband is self employed but since lockdown for the past 6 months he cannot able to work but he had at least 80% from the forlough,what prove we have to send as he doesn’t have 12 months payslip if the uk government ask that’s like last 2 yes ago when I apply for the first spouse visa?we need to prove atleast £18,600 financial requirements,is the bank statement is enough evidence?as it stated in the bank that my husband reviewed money from forlough,we just don’t have idea how we will process evidence for financial since lockdown began thanks a lot x

Go through the official guidance along with its examples and also look some temporary concessions on its end:

She would have to find her own visa route, by finding an employer to sponsor her and offer her a job, for a skilled worker visa if she qualifies for one. You can't sponsor her for a visa, neither can your spouse who your visa is based on.

The UK doesn't allow or support extended family chain migration.

His middle name is completely irrelevant to immigration/visas for the parent.

How long has your husband being employed? You don't need 12 months payslips if your husband has been employed for 6 months, you will only need 6 months payslips even if he was furloughed. This income count as full pay.

Extend on FLR(M), before leave expires, if you already have leave as a spouse of settled person. Preferably not too early. Note requires at least A2 English. B1 preferable.

It's irrelevant who pays the bills.

Thank you casa for the answer, I really do appreciate it,may I also know how if we can’t provide some evidence for my husband child from previous it says we we have to provide utility bill from my husband ex gf or court order letter,we have to tick that box so we can proceed to the application I did tick the box but I guarantee we can’t provide it as my husband and his ex are not in good relationship and she won’t cooperate with that pls help.
