I have never for once registered through NIMC or whatever but when I checked my GTB balance, I just saw my balance my BVN and my NIN displayed.
Seriously this is awesome.

Once you have BVN you automatically have NIN. NIMC simply collected BVN data from banks.

I tried the app. Showed me that my data was not available. I tried again and it showed me someone else's info. I was initially worried but I discovered that it is like that for almost everyone here.
This is a dangerous trend as our data could fall into wrong hands (scammers et al). I hope nobody steals my identity.

If you have enrolled for the national ID card scheme, you can get your NIN by dialling *346# from the phone number associated with your voter's card, drivers licence, or BVN registration.


Ensure you have at least ₦20 airtime on your line and then dial the code.

Can you for once be positive. You only know the beginning of a war. Clamouring for break up is not a guarantee that you will witness it

Please

Can you point to where I mentioned war in my post? undecided

What about iPhone users OP?
Is the application available on appstore?

This should be open for everyone not only android users, what about a link we can use until an ios application is made that's if they will ever make one.

Everything in this country is just frustrating

Nigerian Government has officially dumped the plastic National ID card for the digital ID card.

This vital information was provided by the Minister of Interior, Mr Rauf Aregbesola in a meeting with journalists. He further said, Immediately the National Identification number (NIN) is given to anyone, the Individual is automatically captured in the databank domiciled with NIMC ( National Identity Management Commission) the individual can easily be traced anywhere.

So whenever you go to any Government or private institutions domiciled with NIMC, you must provide your NIN number and all information about you will be used.



how to check your Digital ID number

1) download the NIMC ( national identity management commission) mobile application on playstore or follow this simple link ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nimcmobile&hl=en )

2) then supply your NIN and your registered phone number. ( Do not input your BVN )

3) your digital ID number will be displayed

4) you can print it out immediately.



I have checked mine, you can also check yours


Thanks

I lost my NIMC slip which contains my NIN, I also lost the SIM card that I used to register it.

Is there anyway I could get the NIN and the slip back?

Go back to where you registered or to any NIMC registration center nearest to you.

Then tell them your situation.

They will pull up the data for you.

I think it will cost you some token, but I'm not so sure about that.

I've seen people who come with some stories about their lost NIN details or some errors in their data and they were directed to go back to where they registered ab initio to sort themselves out.
Re: How To Check Your Digital ID Number by Facidio: 6:53pm On Aug 15, 2020
