We do not publish this specific data, as we do not categorise applications on receipt by whether they do or do not have access to public funds. This information could only be obtained by a manual case by case review to collate the data which would be disproportionately expensive.

The published statistics relating to individuals granted leave to remain under the destitution domestic violence concession and Indefinite Leave to Remain in the United Kingdom as a victim of domestic violence are recorded together as part of published Migration Statistics and can be located via the link
