Vulnerable people who have been told to self isolate for 12 weeks

I'm really not sure what other advice you would like. If you didn't keep asking the same questions then the same advice wouldn't needed to be given. I'm sorry the answers you're given may not be what you'd like them to be but rules are rules, i don't make them, i just advise. You don't qualify for furlough because you weren't on the payroll and i don't know what else you want me to say.

Though they have tweaked some aspects of the scheme the mechanism by which it is going to be paid to employees hasnt, and won't be changed - it is via PAYE payroll. Your only recourse is to start a claim for benefits and establish your eligibility for that.

Ok !   
I had thanked you for your pervious advice  - it's not compulsory for you to comment on my post, is it  - so you don't need to keep repeating the same thing on my particular posts 

The answers are the same because the question is the same.

I have been asked to shield for 12 weeks due to being in high risk group 
I only work very part time hours for a private household- perhaps , I think , this is where I don't qualify , 
I am also an unpaid carer 
Thank you 

Many of your comments and questions are vague and in the passive tense. This makes it incredibly challenging to assess, respond accurately with the information you seek. You - as many are - using terms incorrectly and interchangably. Or wrongly linked. Suggesting bad sources or misunderstanfing.

Who exactly told  or asked you what exactly? Info tends to conflict? Please quote and link. We will do our level best to help. Indeed some respected regulars have tried.

All of that is irrelevant because the OP is not on the payroll so can't be furloughed. Earning just over £40 per week means they are not entitled to SSP either.
