For the above 2 you may have to refer to the Public funds for the purposes of immigration guidance
to establish if they fall within it.

The third one from my understanding is so as long as the dependent childs child benefit is being claimed by the parent that holds settled status, it should be fine.

Hope this helps some what.

Again, where it is specific to one's immigration conditions under immigration law in the UK. UKVI/H.O have a specific list of what is regarded as public funds for the purposes of immigration.

If it does not fall within the public funds for the purposes of immigration guidance, then it would not be considered a breach of immigration conditions set out before you.

However just because it isn't listed under it, you still may not be entitled to it, not because of immigration restrictions but other thresholds such as income, nationality, residence or other circumstances that are used to test whether you would be eligible or not.

An example from my understanding is, student finance, although it is a public fund, for the purposes of immigration it wouldnt be consideres as it does not fall under its list of what is considered public funds for the purposes of immigration.

However, you may not be entitled to recieve not because of immigration restrictions or conditions but rather its own eligibility criteria that needs to be met.

I hope this helps.
