Overview
What is Change of Level of Education (NIN)?
Your National Identification Number (NIN) record carries a level of education, and it is often captured at enrolment before you finish studying. Employers, scholarship boards and some government schemes read it, so an out-of-date level is worth correcting once you have the certificate.
NIMC processes a change of level of education at its offices, not on its mobile app. Docufy collects your certificate and the application letter, a vetted partner firm checks them and prepares the request, and you are told where and when to attend. You see every step on your phone.
Who needs this
Anyone whose NIN still shows the level of education they had at enrolment — school leavers who have since graduated, and anyone whose employer or a scheme checks the record.

Questions
Things people ask about change of level of education (nin).
Can I change my level of education on the NIMC app?
No. NIMC handles a change of level of education at its offices, not on its mobile app. Docufy prepares the request and the partner firm tells you where and when to attend.
What do I need to change it?
The certificate you obtained for the level you are claiming, and a short signed application letter to NIMC, along with your NIN and old NIN slip.
My certificate name differs from my NIN name. What then?
Fix the name on your NIN first, or the office is likely to turn the request back. A NIN name change is its own service on Docufy.
