Form to verify that the person in question is still living
It's a bit crude, but in a nutshell literally what it says: prove you are still alive! A form is required to verify that the person in question is still living and therefore is eligable to recieve the benefit in question from the French social security system.

certificate of (continued) eligibility for payment of pension
I don't think a literal translation works here - you wouldn't say "I certify that I exist" - so you have to find another way of expressing it.

: no doubt the existentialists would have been horrified at the thought that existence could simply be "certified"

Certificate of Life, Proof of Life, Certificate of Existence, Letter of Existence
A Certificate of Life (also called a Proof of Life, Certificate of Existence or Letter of Existence) is a certificate produced by an embassy or other government body to confirm that an individual is still alive.[1]
Governments, pension and insurance companies and other bodies may need to check periodically that the people they are paying have not died in order that they do not overpay annuities and pensions.
Where individuals are resident outside their country of origin, a Certificate of Life may be obtained from the person's embassy in their country of residence by producing proof of identity such as a passport.
