After registering for the
NIMC ID card, Nigerians retired to their homes with what could be best
described as a temporary National ID card, with the hope of having the
permanent one within a shorter period of time. However, the hopes of many
Nigerians have been dwindling as getting their permanent National ID card is
taking a thousand years.
Well, I am pleased to
inform you that the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) has launched
a web page basically for checking National ID card status and knowing if it's
ready or not. This will at least build the shattered hopes of many Nigerians.
The procedures involved
in checking it are very simple as it does not require the skills of a computer
guru. Follow the steps below to check yours.
HOW TO CHECK THE STATUS OF
YOUR NATIONAL ID CARD
1. The first thing to do
is to visit the NIMC Website.
2. Then click the proceed
button.
3. Fill in your First name, last name and the first 6 digits of your National Identification Number (NIN).
4. Lastly, click the check now button.
After few seconds, it
will display the status of your national ID card. If it's unavailable, you will
be asked to check back in a week time.
Don't fail to share this
with your friends and relatives who also registered for their National ID Card
as theirs might be ready.
