Any issues with new moms claiming SDI or Paid Family Leave Insurance?

My wife is a permanent resident and is off work temporarily due to having a baby. If she claims State Disability Insurance (SDI) and/or gets benefits under the California Paid Family Leave program (she qualifies for both), will there be any issues with her citizenship application later on? They do ask for the applicant's citizenship status and the A# if not a citizen. Thanks!

No, State Disability or Unemployment are insurances, hence it shouldn't matter.
Moreover these look like state run programs, only obtaining federal benefits disqualify you for citizenship.
