Hello! I was wondering if anyone could help with this part of the citizenship application - Add immigration or citizenship status: Date obtained or effective date.

I am a dual UK and Irish citizen and applied for PR through the UK passport. I only got my first Irish passport this year, but have technically been a Irish citizen since birth but didn't know this so didn't include it in my PR application. I was just wondering if I would write this as since birth or just since the date I got my passport? I'm just confused by the wording of everything!

My old UK passport is also expired and I no longer have it (but it falls within the 5 year eligibility period), has anyone had experience with this - can you just write that you no longer have the expired one?
