JAMB Reopens NIN Alignment Service for Candidates
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has reopened its National Identification Number (NIN) alignment service, allowing candidates to correct mismatches between their JAMB records and National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) data. This service is aimed at candidates whose personal details, including names, dates of birth, gender, or state and local government of origin, do not align across both databases.
Candidates must first correct any discrepancies directly with NIMC using the NIMC self-service modification portal or by visiting an official NIMC center. After ensuring that all changes are reflected in their NIN records, candidates should gather supporting documents that match their updated information before proceeding with their JAMB application.
JAMB emphasized that this is a one-time opportunity, and applications will undergo a verification process. Incomplete or inconsistent submissions will be rejected.
Candidates are advised to follow official channels for guidance and to review all details carefully before submission.
