The new development for 2024 JAMB registration. JAMB has announced that it will not allow any form of data correction this year except for a change of course and institution. This means that if any candidate has made corrections to their NIN, but these are not reflected on their JAMB profile, their registration will be Paused.
THEN SEND SMS
“REQUERY to either 55019 or 66019”.
Candidates will receive a response telling them whether to proceed to JAMB e-facility or to the NIMC office. If the response instructs them to go to the JAMB e-facility, they will need to pay for the correction they have made at NIMC. For instance, if someone has changed their date of birth in NIMC and this change is not reflected on their JAMB profile, they will need to pay 15,000 Naira on the JAMB e-facility. For changes to names, gender, state of origin, and LGA, the fee is 2,500 Naira each.
After making the payment, candidates will need to upload their date of birth certificate, a sworn affidavit, and the NIMC slip on the JAMB e-facility. Only then can they proceed with the registration proper.
Stakeholders are advised to ask their students the necessary questions and ensure that they have all the required documents and fees before taking them to the CBT center.
*NOTE:* Not everyone will need to go through this process. It only applies to those who have made changes to their NIN but have not seen these changes reflected on their JAMB profile.
