NIN BEFORE JAMB 2020: A MUST DO!
In
view of this, we deem it necessary to provide prospective UTME candidates with
the guidelines to register and obtain their NIN before the 2020
UTME registration begins as the registration is expected to commence soon.
What to know About NIN?
NIN simply means National
Identification Number. It consists of 11 non- intelligible numbers
randomly chosen and assigned to an individual after the completion of enrolment
into the National Identity Database (NIDB).
Once a NIN is assigned to an
individual, it can never be reassigned, given or used by another person – that
makes it unique in nature. In the case of the demise of an individual, his/her
NIN is retired once a death certificate is presented to the Commission and the
individual’s death is established.
The NIN is used to tie all records
about an individual in the database and is also used to establish or verify
his/her identity. All citizens and legal residents in Nigeria, from age zero
(birth) and above are eligible to enrol for their NINs.

Registration At an
Enrolment Centre:
The whole process of registration can
be carried out at an enrolment centre. However, to limit the amount of time you
will spend at the enrolment centre, you can complete the first step of the
registration online at (https://penrol.nimc.gov.ng/)
print out the Barcode registration slip and proceed to an enrolment centre to
complete the rest of the registration steps.
STEPS
- Applicants are to
walk into the enrolment
Centre with a supporting document.
- Applicant will be verified
to ascertain if he/she has ever enrolled using the NIN verification
portal.
- Applicant will be issued an
enrolment form to fill if he/she has not enrolled before. OR the printed
Barcode slip (for those who applied online) will be collected if the
applicant had pre-enrolled earlier using the pre-enrolment service.
- Applicant’s forms will be
vetted by a NIMC Official to crosscheck the information filled on the form
against the supporting document provided and to check for errors/mistake
filled on the form. Note: applicants who cannot read nor write should be
accompanied by a literate individual who can do the form filling for
him/her.
- Applicant’s pre-filled
information will be inputted on the NIMC Software by a NIMC enrolment
officer or the Barcode slip will be scanned by the NIMC enrolment officer
to populate all the required field.
- The enrolment officer will
ask the applicant to double check his/her information for errors using the
applicant monitor.
- If the applicant is satisfied
with his/her demographic information, the biometrics (ten finger prints
and facial image) of the applicant will be capture subsequently.
- After completing the
enrolment, a Transaction ID Slip will be issued to the applicant as an
evidence of the transaction. However, the Transaction slip does
not confer the right to National Identification Number. The applicant
will be requested to come back for the NIN within 1-5 working days, as it
is subjected to availability of network, authentication and verification.
- A National Identification
Number (NIN) Slip is issued to the applicants after processing.
- The National e-ID Card will
be Issued to applicant within 12months after Issuance of NIN barring any
unforeseen circumstances.
