I had this problem for my son. Middle name on NIN was first name on NIS. They asked me the correct arrangement, and I said NIN is correct. They told me to look for an officer like that, I found him and he took me to meet another officer in servicom. The man gave me his phone number and told me to call him at a certain time. I called and he said he has to send a mail to NIS Abuja for rearrangement. I was told to pay 5k for that. Then my boy captured a week later. I am diy but little mistakes like this is what they use to get money from diy people grin. I chose NIS to be correct because I didn't want them to send me to nimc. No nimc office close to me. Also, I felt that it will not be too stressful for them to do it in immigration office there.

Omo I'm just leaving Ikoyi office now. I wasn't able to capture today. I was told that my names are not arranged properly on my NIN. That I should go to NIN office to correct it.

Please who has had a similar experience, how did you go about it and how long did it take?

Mistakes like this is why there Are against DIY applicants they will quried you "why did you do it yourself"

New applicants who wants to go DIY way needs to learn from other past applicants experiences to try possibly to avoid such mistakes during online registrations input exactly what's on NIN slip eg First name, middle name, last name and most importantly date of birth, month and year

Oh wow! I met a random person outside who said he could do the correction for 5k, but he said it'll take 1 week. I wasn't sure I'd find him when I come back there next week, so I didn't do it with him. I guess I'd have to look for NIMC close to where I stay and go do the correction.

You should have done NIMC correction. That rearrangement may affect his future docs unless you want him to continue using the names as currently arranged now

And also Nim name correction is just #500 and affidavit to back it up

Good day house, seasons greetings to you all.
I like to seek your advice on these issue--- my cousin lost her port about 2 years ago (though expired by now) and she needs to get a new port unfortunately she doesn't have a copy of the lost port or the port details. How does she go about this please since she has no data or information whatsoever in regards the previous port?

Good evening, please the name arrangement on son's port is different from the nin slip.
The first name on the port is the middle name on the nin slip and vice versa, I want to apply for renewal of his port, should I use the name exactly as it is on the port or the nin slip. Thanks

Since your son has a port already and it's renewal you want to do, I'd advice you go to NIS office servicom to enquire.

Since is renewal is going to be an issue. You have to go to NIN office to rearrange NIN name to match the port.
ButIf you want his port to be same on the NIN then you will need to do name rearrangement with immigration and follow due process, they might reefer you to NIS head office Abuja. Meanwhile still visit savicon in the immigration office to make enquiries
Juoflife1(f): 8:29pm On Dec 16, 2022
The arrangement of name on the NIN is correct. It was rearranged(first & middle name) during pp registration. So I was asked the correct arrangement and I chose the NIN. The problem was with pp registration, not NIN. Now the port will have the same name with his NIN.

Juoflife1(f): 8:40pm On Dec 16, 2022
If the name on your port registration is the correct name arrangement on your documents, then you go to nimc and rearrange it on your NIN. But, If the name on your NIN is the correct name arrangement on your documents, then you have to change the name on your port registration with NIS. That was what I did

The only way to stop this port racketeering is to centralize the production of ports and hire an independent contractor to do the printing. Capturing can also be outsourced to verified contractors just like NIMC cos there's absolutely nothing different between NIMC and port data collation.



Meanwhile, who knows the month they are printing at th Abẹ́òkúta office.

Always use the information on the NIN. Then get a one and the same person affidavit

After everything we’ve said here, you still couldn’t take time out to arrange, and confirm your details? Na wa!
