Non-OPT and NON CPT F1 Visa student - public charge possibility?

Been lurking around everywhere on reddit but I haven't seen anyone asked this question yet.

So I'm currently on an F-1 visa and have been working an on-campus job, due to COVID-19 my workplace got shutdown and I have been applying for unemployment benefits. I have also received the stimulus check as well since I have been filing my tax from the previous year. My question is:

  1. Am I allowed to get the unemployment benefit? My thinking is that if I have not match the requirement, my unemployment benefit would be rejected and I would not get anything. But it was accepted through the system so does that mean that Im qualified?
  2. Am I allowed to accept the stimulus check sent by the government as well?
  3. I have been reading about public charges, I have received the benefits for around 6 months and as such, will that be categorized as a public charge?

Thank you in advance to all the kind souls that answered.

Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...
