Invalid Format & Unable To Verify NIN
If you are getting an Invalid Format or Failed to Verify NIN, then the following guide will be of help to you.
- NIN must be length = 11
- Make sure your NIN is correctly linked with your number
- You can use any SIM Card So long it is registered with your name
- Do not use Sim registered with another name
- Make sure the NIN Name Matches the name on your SIM Card
- Ensure to have N100 or above airtime on your Phone
- Make sure you Typed the Correct NIN Number
- Did I put more than one Space between your NIN and my NIN Number?
Someone Wrote: Please, I’m trying to get my Profile Code and I already have my NIN. I’m using Etisalat and the response I got was “Failed to verify NIN”. Then I was told not to use 9mobile. I was advised to use my mum’s MTN SIM since I have no other Sim, but still getting the same response.
My original SIM was registered by her in her name though and I was wondering if it could affect my getting the Profile code since it’s her name on the SIM and not mine.
If you followed all the steps above, Jamb should send you Some Code. After getting the code, the next thing is getting an E-PIN. NIN Must be length = 11.
How To Avoid SMS Issues Creating Profile
- Don’t add a comma between NIN & NIN Number.
- Don’t add space after your NIN Number
- 50 Naira will be deducted from your Sim. Make sure you have above N50 Naira airtime on your Mobile phone before sending the SMS.
- One Phone number can be used by one candidate only. Don’t share the same number with your brother or sister. They should get their own sim and send their own message.
- Make sure your phone number is linked with NIN before you send NIN to 55019.
- Don’t use your dad, mom or brother’s phone number.

Generated Profile Code Names
Another possible error message when trying to generate a Jamb profile code is, “Already generated Profile Code Names Does Not match Names you enrolled with NIMC.
It simply means the Name you used to register your SIM Card is different from the name you used to register NIN.
Your profile name is your SIM Card name. It should match your NINC name, i.e the name you entered while enrolling NIN should match with your SIM Registration name.
- Did you register your SIM yourself?
- Are you using someone’s SIM Card?
- Are you sure you are using your NIN Number?
Some persons claimed that they were able to register Jamb profile even when the name on their NIN Slip and SIM Card is different. But for most persons, they get rejected.

Since 2018, candidates have been noticing that the profile code jamb gives to them is similar to that of the previous years. This happens if it is your second or third time sitting for Jamb and it is not an issue.
You can be given the same profile code for Jamb 2022 in Jamb 2025
The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB portal has been updated and it is now mandatory for all candidates to create a Profile on the Jamb website before they can participate in the 2025 UTME.

I try to recreate my profile code for 2022. i used another Mobile Number and its mine But unfortunately they sent ” YOUR NIN HAS ALEADY BEEN REGISTERED WITH ANOTHER MOBILE AND THEY PROVIDE THE NUMBER I USED LAST YEAR”
After thaylt
I Send NIN to 55019 with tne mobile number which was they said it was registered with (Last year)
And they send me Profile. Code but it was exactly the same with that of the last year.
Does that mean each NIN is used once for a registration or I should used that profile code.
