JAMB Important Update On Sending NIN To 55019 Or 66019 For Profile Code Creation
This is to inform all 2022 UTME candidates that are having issues in creating a profile code for the registration that there has been an update regarding that.
Such candidates are to note that they can send their NIN from any SIM of their choice provided the SIM has been liked to their NIN and has not been used by another candidate to register for UTME/DE.
This means that candidates can use any SIM of their choice to send their NIN to 55019 or 66019.
However, they must ensure that no one has ever used the SIM to register for JAMB whether in the past or in the present, and also ensure the SIM you are using has been linked to their NIN.
We believe the reason for this is because JAMB has discovered that some candidates are having issues getting their profile codes due to the poor network of some of the telecommunication companies. You can try phone numbers from different networks. Hopefully, one will work for you.

For those that registered JAMB last year, they are to note that it is the same profile code used last year that they will be required to use this year.
So they can use the same phone number they used last year to send the message to 55019 or 66019 to get their profile codes; that is if they no longer remember it.
They can equally send [RESEND] to 55019 or 66019 as a text message from the same mobile number they used last year to get their profile codes.
The right way to send the message to create profile code
Open “Create Message” on your Phone and Type the word ‘NIN then space and then type your 11 digit NIN number and send it to 55019 or 66-10. For example, NIN 00123456789 (Replace 00123456789 with the numbers in your NIN Slip.) the message should be sent to 55019 or 66019.
