Apply now or wait?

I'm currently on furlough pay and was on maternity leave since August. My pay is based on my role as assistant manager position roughly 22k. I will be on furlough until August but my employer can only give me an 8hr contract to return to. This drops my salary to only 3648 (although I will be working more like 24 hrs a week). My husband's salary is 24k and we have a 10% deposit. 
Could we apply now based on my assistant manager salary or would we need to make the application based on my future salary?

    If you’re furloughed they would ask for confirmation of your pay and position when you get back from your employer. So if they won’t confirm that then you’d have to apply on the new salary.
