Hi @emmafreckles and a warm welcome to the community! Were you claiming SSP or any kind of money from your employer before furlough? It would be a good idea to check with your employer whether you are getting sick pay or your full wage.

If it is your wage, you would have to inform DWP or talk with your employer. 

Please do let us know how you get on.
