@maddylewis FYI I haven't added the External label as I wasn't 100% sure about this issue. Please take a look and add the label if you agree it's a bug and can be handled by external contributors.

I'm investigating this, I reproduced in dev but still haven't found the cause

This also happens in production:

No idea if this behaviour changed on purpose.

Asking if this is expected behaviour and we should update the test rail test or if this is wrong: https://expensify.slack.com/archives/C03U7DCU4/p1747183929623809

Doesn't sound wrong to me that the receiver can pay the invoice even after the workspace is deleted. 🤷
