How NINFix works
NINFix does not change your NIN. We guide you through fixing it yourself, with the exact official steps, documents, fees, and timeline. Here is how it goes.
From problem to fixed, step by step
Tell us the problem
Pick the issue closest to yours, or view your official NIN record and flag anything that is wrong. Name, date of birth, address, phone, NIN-BVN mismatch, and more.
Get your personalized plan
We build a clear, step-by-step plan for your exact case: the documents to gather, the official NIMC fee, ancillary costs, and a realistic timeline.
Pay and go to NIMC
For most corrections, pay the official fee on Remita first (we show you how), then take your documents to a NIMC enrolment centre. BVN-side fixes are done in person at your bank instead, with no Remita fee. You make the correction yourself, the official way.
Track it to the finish
Log your submission and we remind you when to check your status, collect your new slip, and re-link your BVN at the bank if needed.

Track a submissionWith NINFix, or on your own
The same NIN correction, two very different experiences.
Without NINFix
- Guess which centre to visit, and risk a wasted trip to the wrong one.
- Queue for hours, then get turned away because a document is missing.
- Pay extra, unofficial charges to agents on top of the real fee.
- Swear the wrong affidavit or bring the wrong papers, and start over.
- No idea how long it takes, or what to do after you submit.
With NINFix
- Know the exact NIMC centre near you before you leave home.
- Bring the exact documents your case needs, and get it right the first time.
- Pay only the official fee on Remita, with no surprise charges.
- A clear, step-by-step plan built for your specific correction.
- Reminders for every step, until your NIN is fully fixed.
What NINFix does, and does not do
Shows you your official record, with your consent.
Gives the exact documents, official fees, and timeline.
Tracks your case and reminds you of the next step.
We never change your NIMC data. No app can.
We are not NIMC and not a government agency.
We never store your full BVN, biometrics, or ID scans.
