Since JAMB made this compulsory, candidates will be left with no other choice than to make use of the 11-digit number to begin their registration processes.
A student recently called to know if he could use his father's or mother's NIN and send that to 55019/66019 in order to get the profile code which he would use to buy the PIN.
There are actually the needs to ask this kind of questions because a series of problems were lately reported.
- Some candidates have not been sent the profile no matter the number of times they sent the NIN to 55019/66019. They will want to consider using another NIN to see if they're having the issues due to their own NINs.
- Some candidates got error messages including "there is a problem with your NIN surname and other names.
- Some got errors claiming their national ID card passport was not available and several other complaints.
Well, this post will help you understand if it'll be possible to use another person's NIN to register for JAMB UTME/DE
You Can't Use Another Candidate's NIN to Register
If you're thinking your friend or brother's NIN didn't complain when he sent his own to 55019/66019 and you think you should use his NIN for your own too, it won't work.
Of course, the system will report an error message that the NIN has been used for one registration already that it won't be accepted for another candidate.
Hence, using an already used NIN won't work for you. And even if it does, there is no need to try because ... (more on this below).
You Can't Use Your Parents or Relatives NINs to Register
Don't think since your mum or daddy doesn't need registration for UTME/DE, you can just use theirs to get your JAMB profile code.
The basics are that JAMB is using NINs to fetch individual candidates' data to register them for the exams/admissions.
For instance, below are a few details JAMB will fetch from the NIMC database if you use your NIN:
- Full names
- Date of Birth
- State and Local Government of Origin
- Address
- Gender and
- Passport Photo
Therefore, immediately you get to the JAMB accredited CBT center for your registration, all the attendant will do is to enter your JAMB profile code and all the information above will apprear for him.
He will only need to fill your institutions of choice and upload your results (where available) and submit them.
Hence, if you use another person's NIN, the person's data will be fetched for you. I'm sure you know the implication.
Conclusion
Be sure you use your personal NIN for the profile code and the purchase of the UTME/DE form. JAMB is tying your registration to your national ID card. So, no other person's details will be accepted as yours.
Pls why is 55019 not sending my profile code, they keep sending " no record found ". How should I go about it.
ReplyDeleteAm having issues with my nin and jamb based on date of birth, the age in nin is more than my jamb regularisation. How my going to go about it,am confused now
ReplyDeleteYou can correct error on NIN at NIMC and correct error on the JAMB at JAMB office.
DeleteThe name on my Nin is slightly different from the one on my O' level result,hope it won't implicate me? Or what can u do about it )
DeleteSorry sir I misplaced the sim that I used for my registration last year. Now I wanted to generate my profile code and I was told that my nin has already been registered
ReplyDeleteI am having same issue too but the thing is that I forgot my g mail password last won't it affect my present registration if I use same profile code
DeleteIf you don't forget your JAMB password, you won't need your email password. You can also get your JAMB password through SMS in case.

ReplyDeleteI have sent my nin to 55019
It has sent but haven't received my code
What is the problem
Check if you've been debited N50. If not, try again until you're debited. If already debited, wait a few hours before you retry.
DeleteGood day. My brother has done strong head and registered with our parents details. Now his slip is out and it's carrying another name. Can it be deleted? What's the solution?
ReplyDeleteHe has to obtain another form. This time he will use his own NIN and another phone number.
DeleteWon't the fingerprint cause trouble in this case?
DeleteAt least, it worth trying.
DeleteSir mine is saying GSM used my another student on e facility
ReplyDeleteThe sim I'm using belongs to my sister and I think she has used it for jamb
It was the same sim I used for my NIN
I don't know what to do to generate my own profile code
Use your own phone number or another phone number. It doesn't matter if you used the other phone number for your NIN or not. Just use another phone number and make sure it's your NIN you send.
Delete55019 just keep sending me "no record found" why
ReplyDeleteYou will have to send an email message to [email protected] The email message will contain your FULL NAMES and NIN. After that wait a day and retry.

ReplyDeleteYou're sending with errors, may be. Text as follows: NIN followed by a space and followed by your NIN e.g NIN 12345678998. Send to 55019. Don't put comma, no full stop, no any symbols and no more spaces. If the same happens, send message to NIMC following the guide in the post below.

ReplyDeleteHow can I use my mom NIN to register my jamb
You can't use any other person's NIN to register JAMB. The NIN must be yours.
DeleteSir I enter my NIN and is showing already generated profile and showed another person's name on my phone screen
DeleteThat means, you're not the own of the NIN
DeleteI used this Nin for jamb last year with a number, am using another number now with the same Nin and its saying my nin has been registered with another number ,which is the number I used last year
ReplyDeletePlease what can I do before the registration closes
The only solution left with you is to do welcome back for the SIM. If you can't, go to the JAMB office to lodge complaint or send them message through the link below.
Deletehttps://support.jamb.gov.ng/candidate-support/create-general-ticket
Do I have to verify my nin after registering and having the number?
ReplyDeleteFor the JAMB registration, you don't need any verification of NIN. Just send NIN followed by a space and followed by your 11-diit NIN and send to 55019 e.g. NIN 17625829113
DeleteGood morning sir
ReplyDeleteI used my dad's nin for jamb reg and it brought my dad pic and mine out on the jamb reg no pls what do I do sir
Go and buy another JAMB form. That one belong to your dad. This time, make sure you use your own NIN.
DeleteAll what is saying is wrong number passed .
DeleteWhat should I do
Retry and if the same thing, go to JAMB office to lodge this complaint.
DeletePls have been trying to get my profile code but is sending error.what can I do even have went to sim vendor to register another sim but unsuccefully and jamb is end on the 26 pls what can I do
ReplyDeleteWhat error specifically?
DeleteI keep sending my nin but it keep saying no record found , so I've sent the necessary to Gmail.
ReplyDeleteSir hope it will do if I later try it ?
Yes if you have sent it correctly. If after you retry it brings NO RECORD FOUND, send the email again until they attend to yours.
DeleteGood day, sir. Pls I had problem with my email address and could not acess my profile but when I got to jamb office for email correction, I was told they can't do anything about it and they were able to access my profile and I wasn't given admission. If I want to write another jamb, what should I do because I don't want the previous email to exist anymore. Can I use my other sim to register for new jamb?
ReplyDeleteNo. You're already tied to the email and profile. There is no other way. You can't use a new line to register JAMB. You will need the same phone number, the same profile code and the same NIN
DeleteBrother I want to do no jamb for regularization but a code has been sent to the sim I previously used what can I do sir
ReplyDeleteI don't understand your situation
