Can Someone Else Help Me Do NYSC Registration in My Absence?
If you are a Nigerian graduate who is eligible for the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program, you might be wondering if you can delegate the online registration process to someone else in case you are not available or have some challenges.
The answer is no, you cannot let someone else do the NYSC registration for you in your absence. In this article, we will explain why it is important to do the registration by yourself and what are the consequences of not doing so.
Why You Should Do the NYSC Registration by Yourself
The NYSC registration is a crucial step that determines your mobilization and deployment status for the service year. It requires you to provide accurate and personal information, such as your name, date of birth, state of origin, institution, course, grade, email, phone number, and bank verification number (BVN).
You also need to upload some documents, such as your passport photograph, degree certificate, call-up letter, and medical report.
The most important part of the registration is the biometric verification, which involves capturing your fingerprints using a thumbprint scanner. This is to ensure that your identity is verified and matched with your details. The biometric verification is mandatory and cannot be skipped or done by someone else.
If you fail to do the biometric verification, you will not be able to print your green card and call-up letter, which are essential documents for the orientation camp.
Therefore, doing the NYSC registration by yourself is the only way to ensure that your information is correct and complete, and that your biometric verification is successful. If you let someone else do the registration for you in your absence, you risk having errors, omissions, or mismatches in your data, which can cause problems later on.
For example, you may not be able to access your dashboard, change your state of deployment, or receive your monthly allowance. You may also face disciplinary actions or prosecution if you are found to have falsified your identity or credentials.
What to Do If You Cannot Do the NYSC Registration by Yourself
If you have a genuine reason why you cannot do the NYSC registration by yourself, such as being sick, traveling, or having network issues, you have some options to consider. First, you can try to postpone your registration until you are able to do it by yourself.
The NYSC registration portal is usually open for four weeks, so you may still have time to register before the deadline. However, you should note that the earlier you register, the better your chances of getting your preferred state of deployment.
Second, you can try to find a reliable and trustworthy person who can assist you with the registration process, but not do it for you. For example, you can ask a friend or a relative to help you fill out the online form, upload your documents, and pay the registration fee.
However, you still need to do the biometric verification by yourself, either at the same time or later. You also need to verify and confirm that the information and documents provided by your helper are correct and complete.
Third, you can try to find an accredited NYSC registration center near you, where you can do the registration by yourself with the help of a professional agent. The NYSC registration centers are equipped with computers, internet, scanners, and thumbprint devices, and they charge a fee for their services.
You can find the list of accredited NYSC registration centers on the NYSC website¹. However, you should be careful and vigilant when dealing with the agents, as some of them may try to scam or exploit you.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the NYSC registration is a personal and important process that you should do by yourself and not in your absence. Doing the registration by yourself will ensure that your information and biometric verification are accurate and complete, and that you avoid any problems or penalties during your service year.
If you cannot do the registration by yourself for some reasons, you can try to postpone it, get some assistance, or find an accredited NYSC registration center, but you still need to do the biometric verification by yourself. We hope this article has answered your question and helped you understand the NYSC registration process better.
