If the passport application is not based on birth right then no need to fill this part. I mean any kid getting passport after parent's ILR or their own registration as British citizen need not fill that part of the passport application.

Thank you very much nax_72 for your quick response, my child got his registered recently. So does that mean I can leave it blank? I am thinking of submitting it today at the post office using the check and send service.

When I filled my daughter form I left it blank. It was under my PR received before she was born.

There used to be in the past different passport application forms depending on your application but sometimes people used the wrong form so a one-fit-all application form was introduced which means there are sections in the form that might not be relevant to your application.

Having said that, if you are using Check & Send, the PO staff might insist on having all sections completed to cover themselves. For adults application, it is recommended to write down the dates you put on the application as they might be asked later in the identity interview.
