Application Parent Information

Hello,
I am filling in my application for naturalisation, however, I am stuck on the question regarding providing information about my parents. I do not know my parent's DATE and the City of Birth and there's no way to get access to that information. When I applied for ILR they didn't ask for a date or city of birth, I am pretty sure I provided their names and stuff. Can I just leave two questions these empty?
Also, I was granted by ILR on 13 September 2021 so I can make the application on 13 or wait till 14?

You can say "not known" - it's not an issue.
Yes, you can apply on the ILR anniversary date or anytime after (there's no due date by which you have to apply - it's a voluntary application), but don't rush, take your time and get everything as correct as possible.
Also review the AN guidance, if not done so already:

Quick question regarding refers -
Do they need to sign some sort of form? or filling their information on the online application form is enough?
If, yes how do I go about getting that form?

No, your parents don't need to sign your form.
Sorry my bad, I guess I did not word it properly.
I meant the two references I am using. Do they need to sign any form?

Yes, they need to each sign the form. You then have to scan and upload them with your supporting documents.

You can also have your referees sign the whole thing directly on the PDF, no need to scan. See
this post.

Quick question about referees again.
I am using my friend and his girlfriend's dad as my two references. Will it be classed as they are related to each other or relative or is it okay to use them both?

Referees cannot be related to each other.

Hey, I am filling in my application, which asks for my BPR. There's one question regarding
- Place of issue
Yet, there is no "place of issue" on my BPR.
just to make sure it is my residence permit that I got with my ILR ?

Also, about previous applications, if I made any. How many do I fill in? all of them I don't remember all of them.
For example
Do I need to fill it in all student visa applications I made or just say one student visa one child student visa?

suggest you write London - not sure why they are asking this....

That's your evidence of ILR/permanent residence.

All. Fill in as many as you can remember/have details.
For example

All. If you can't remember, don't have details add a note about this and load with your documents.

I am uploading documents through the IDV app; I was wondering if I could use my BRP for ID verification?

Also, a question regarding proof of living in the UK for five years.
Can I attach my degree? I don't think I have an old confirmation of study letter.
