I received my numéro de sécurité sociale; however, I was asked to submit my birth certificate to finalize the process. As I am adopted, I do not have a birth certificate. Instead, I provided my adoption papers, my certificate of naturalization for the country where I was adopted, and other relevant documents. I also sent a letter to my CPAM explaining my situation and called to clarify, and I was assured that these documents would be sufficient.
However, I have now received another letter requesting my birth certificate, stating that my benefits will be rescinded if I do not provide it. I have no way of obtaining this document, as I do not know my birth parents' names, and the adoption agency that handled my case no longer exists.
What can I do in this situation? There must be an alternative document that can be accepted in place of a birth certificate.
