Hello from England! I'm having a little trouble with one of the pieces of information I need to provide. Does it matter if I don't know my biological father's birthday? I know his name and where he was born but I don't know when. It's the only thing I don't know.

Is he named on your birth certificate? My husband was in the same boat. He could provide name and birthplace but no birth date. He listed his birth date as "I don't know" and was fine, but his biological father wasn't on his birth certificate, so I don't know if that had anything to do with it. People can be estranged from parents, so I'm sure "I don't know" is an acceptable answer.

He's not listed actually. I always forget about that, so thank you :)
