i think there's an instruction there that you have to follow if the parent is unknown. i can't remember the exact date but i think i put 01/01/1900 something like that. try clicking the question mark sign or help.

Hi again..ive sorted it out yes..ive used 01/01/1900 as advised by a friend..you are right bhlem_bhlem..it worked..for the info of everyone who would encounter such problem use 01/01/1900 if the date of birth is unknown..i still hve one query..the section where it says who are u going to live with in UK the drop down choices doesn't include mother..so i click on the other relative which im not sure if that is ok..i dont know why they didi'n include mother or father in the choices..

i have used 01/01/1900 and it worked..what about the section where it says who are you going to stay with in UK? and the answer should be mother but there isn't a mother on the dropdown choices so i click on other relative..is this okay? thanks..
