Child benefit and ILR application

Hi all, I am seeking some advice regarding my ILR application please.

I'm about to apply for my ILR by the end of this month (under 5-year route). My husband is British and earns more than £18,600 per annum, however, we just have a baby (she's British) and my husband has just started claiming child benefit for her.

So my question is, as my husband (my sponsor) has been claiming child benefit, would this affect my ILR application? I've tried to search for more information in gov website but I couldn't find it anywhere. Please could anyone shed some light on this for me?

Your help would be much appreciated.
