Apart from:

Having health insurance a bank letter chowing sufficient funds as well as

A letter chowing they are in receipt of a pension

Why do you think you need more than you have already indicated? Seems perfectly adequate. Have you applied for a residence permit and been refused?

Hello Lucapooka

Its because i have been given different information from 2 different people and some of the information says that i might need some additional documentation.

i guess that from your reply i should ignore what i have been told and go by what is on the HO website.
No my application is yet to be submitted, i just want them all the information they need on time before my current stay expires.

Well, it is one thing for the pensioner to establish a right of residence, but when the pensioner has a dependant over 21, it is another thing altogether.

An assessment of dependancy will have to be establish to see whether the dependancy between you and your father is genuine.

Whether taking into account your circumstances, you are unable to provide your essential need without the support you receive from your father, whether your father is genuinely in the position of supporting you.

All the circumstance will be considered.

You my well succeed if it is established that you are truely dependant, although UKBA are in the habit of treating Direct descentant over 21, as Extended family member in Regulation 8. Which is wrong in law.

The CJEU is currently dealing with a case on this issue from a Swedish court.
