I been through similar situation twice with USCIS sending me RFE for Birth cert verification. Below is what I did and cleared the issue without any hiccups. Hope this helps for you.
- your first school from back home. Go there and ask them to write a letter in school pad saying "according to school record, this person is child of (your parents) and has birth date of xxxxxx"
- make a 2 copy of affidavt sample, and have them notarized.
(i have sample for them, if you want to send back home. I had hard time to make them understand the need to folks back there. so if you send sample, it helps).

include those 2 copies with below cover letter, you should be good.

RE: Response to "Request for Evidence", File no: (USCIS SRC #)

Dear Sir/Madam:

In response to your "Request for Evidence", Please find the following documents enclosed herewith:

• The "Request for Evidence" letter and the envelope.
• Copy of " Early School Records" for (person name) showing the date of admission, place and date of birth including both parents name.
• Notarized copy of "affidavit letter" from 2 family friends and neighbors who have the personal knowledge of (person name) Birth.

My birth was registered later because it was not prevalent at that time to register the birth of children within a year. Before I came to United State, I did not have my driver license from Nepal. As for religious document, there is no such thing as baptismal or other notable religious events in Hindu culture that would help me to produce "religious certificates".

Thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter.


Sincerely,

(your name)


~~~~~~~~ PS. apparently looks like i misunderstood your question. your situation is NOT HAVING a Birth Certificate at all, rather than getting a RFE because of late registration which is what my response is for. USCIS is sending RFE notice more and more recently for late birth registration. Even though it really didn't click to your situation, i am leaving this here with sample letter - hoping this will help someone in need. ~~~~~~~~~~~~
