I submitted my permanent residence application 14 months ago under Humanitarian & Compassionate category. I received the approval in principle letter last week. One of the requirement is that I have to proof that I did not receive any welfare from government.
Last year, I received the Child Care Benefit. Will this affect the approval of my Permanent Residence? If yes, what should I do?

CCB does not count as social assistance. You do still need to show you can support yourself and your child financially.
