Survivors Benefits: What is Acceptable Usage of SSI Survior Benefits for Minor Child

My child father passed away. My child is now receiving survivor monthly benefits. What are the dos and dont's of using there money. For example, can I use some of the money to cover house payment utilities. I know I can you it to purchase a bed, dresser etc. I am unclear if using the money to help cover household expenses like the ones listed above are OK:confused:.


Thank you
