Official Answer: Stalk the FAQ page.

Where in the FAQ page? As I said, I read the FAQ/errata but, if it's in there, I missed seeing it.

It's not there. At least not yet. That's why you and the rest of us are stalking that page waiting for it to show up.

We can argue ourselves in circles repeatedly - and have done so several times already - but nothing we say is official.

There are plenty of cases where them being living still applies, just not if there's the Vitality/Void tags. For example, the spell "Soothe" in occultism, some Elixirs and more. Dhampir's are specifically a strange hybrid between life and death.

If you want to be fully undead, there's a Vampire Archetype. (Do not recommend personally, unless the DM lets you grab the rest of the Template as well)

Dhampir are treated as Undead for "Positive Damage" (Positive) per RAW. However, they do not take damage from Positive effects that don't deal damage.
Many vitality effects don't deal damage though, so they're usually fine. Dhampir's will take damage from Heal, but not from the healing ability of a bard. If a healing spell doesn't have vitality or void it will also heal them. This used to be true with Life Boost, until after the recent remaster.
