We received an RFE asking for a copy of the birth certificate from the country where my wife was born. She was born in one country and moved with her parents to France shortly after, when she was a girl. At any rate, we contacted the government for a birth certificate and they gave us a 'copy of the act of birth.' The rep even said it has all the same info, and even asked if this was for the US immigration form i485, so I would guess this person has seen this request before. She didn't mention the reason for needing it to anyone, so it was interesting that this government rep brought it up.

Does anyone have experience using a 'copy of the act of birth' instead of a 'birth certificate?'
