It's a really, really tough situation for a lot of people and I feel for you. Unless you are in receipt of certain benefits mostly related to having a disability or caring for someone who has one, there is no way around the financial requirement - until if/when it is scrapped or revised.

Of course one radical solution is that you could move to another EU country (for example Ireland) and then your husband could join you there as there are no financial requirements on those types of visas and they are relatively easy to get. After 6 months of working in a job there you could all return to the UK without having to get a British visa, just a much easier-to-get 'EEA Family Permit'.

But of course, since you have kids this may not be an easy thing to just decide to do.
