We have a foster child in our care that qualifies for the tax credit, however, DHS does not have his SSN on file. How should we file if we don't have is SSN?

He was in our care for 10 months in 2024. DHS said they are trying to get the SSN, but are not sure the bio parents even filled out the paperwork at the hospital. Bio parents are super uncooperative.
