Jamb Series 15: Not Receiving Profile Code

Some Jamb 2022 Candidates are having issues Creating Jamb Profile. One of the Problems is Not Receiving Jamb Profile Code after sending NIN to 55019.

If you have sent NIN 00123456789 to 55019 and haven’t gotten profile Code to register Jamb, try sending NIN 00123456789 to 66019. Ensure to replace 00123456789 with your NIN Number.

Make sure you have at least N100 airtime and wait for some hours before resending.

Have You Tried The USSD Method?

1. Dial *55019*1*00123456789#
2. Replace 00123456789 with your NIN Number
3. Done

Jamb Profile Creation

NIN 00123456789

Send to 55019 or 66019

Where 00123456789 is your NIN number.

• Make sure no mistakes in your NIN number and make sure there is only one space between NIN and Number.
• Ensure to have enough airtime and check that your line can send and receive messages.
• Make sure your NIN NAME matches the one on the SIM.
• Have you linked NIN with your SIM? Do so before sending
• Is the NIN number you typed up to 11 Characters (NIN Must be = 11 Characters)

Solutions To Failed To Verify NIN

• Make sure name on your NIN Slip Matches with that used during Sim registration
• Do not use SIM belonging to someone else
• Have N100 or above airtime

Your NIN (XXXXXXXXX) has already been registered with GSM Number (080XXXXXXXX). What does it mean? Is the number your own?

Generated Name Doesn’t  Match

Another possible error message when trying to generate Jamb profile code is

Already generated Profile Code Names (Your name and Surname) Does Not match Names you entrolled with NIMC.

Your profile name is your SIM Card name. It should match your NINC name, i.e the name you entered while creating Jamb profile.

NIN Registered With GSM Number

Your NIN 00123456789 has already been registered with GSM Number 090xxxxxxxx.

If you are told that your NIN has already been registered with another number, simply use the number that you used to register NIN to create your Jamb Profile.

NIN Must be Numbers Only

NIN Must be numbers only e.g NIN 00000000021 to 55019.

The error above shall display if you add more than one space between your NIN and NIN number. Make sure there is OnLY ONE Space.

Here is an example of more than one space between NIN and NIN Number – NIN   00000000021

GSM Number has Already Been Used

This GSM Number has already been used by another Candidate on e-Facility.

If you already wrote or registered Jamb in the past, the same profile code shall be sent to you. Simply use the code to register the new Jamb.

• You will be given the same profile code if you wrote Jamb before.
• You can use 2021 profile code to register 2022 Jamb

After my little research, I have been able to come out with the following solutions to address the issue at hand. The three recommendations below could just be your saving grace.

1. If you have MTN Line, you should use it preferably.

2. Make sure you have enough airtime and your SIM is able to send and receive messages.

3. Enter NIN Space NIN Number to 55019 and send to 55019, E.g NIN 01267930282 to 55019
