How to Update Your NPC Profile | Edit Your State of Assignment, Residence, Qualifications and Others

;

Surprisingly, even after submission, a lot of candidates who applied for the 2023 ad-hoc staff recruitment of the National Population Commission (NPC) do not know that they can still update their bio-information, state of assignment, residence, contact, next of kin and other details they submitted during the application. This article contains a step by step procedure on how to edit your profile.

Also See: 

census

An important reason why one should consider changing he/her profile is because of space, some Wards, LGA or States are already filled up and cannot accommodate more Enumerators and Supervisors and as such, the status of a lot of candidates in such regions are still 'pending'. It is advisable for candiates still having 'pending' on their profile to consider changing their location to a less competitive Ward, LGA or even State as the case may be.

To update your profile follow the steps listed below;


  1. Visit https://2023censusadhocrecruitment.nationalpopulation.gov.ng/
  2. Click on 'Check Application Status'.
  3. Enter your NPC ID and click on 'Proceed' to check your status.
  4. If your status is showing 'Pending', proceed to the next step, otherwise if its showing 'Approved' and you still want to change your location, I do not recommend that. 
  5. After checking your status, click on the address bar on the same page you are on and paste this other link: https://2023censusadhocrecruitment.nationalpopulation.gov.ng/prev
  6. Now press enter to open the page
  7. The page will load and open a 'Form Preview' page. You can recall this page when you first submitted your application.
  8. Click on 'Edit' on any section you want to edit. e.g. bio. contact, education, residence, contact etc.
  9. After you update your profile, click on OK and proceed to submit, to effect the change.
Good luck!

    1. I'm afraid not, you can neither edit your NIN nor name, your only play is for the person to represent you by taking your place. During the trial census, some people represented others, I'm guessing there will be the same room for that during the main census.

    1. For account details, I'm afraid you cannot edit it on the portal right now, recall the option to input your account details shows only after you've been approved, but not to worry you can still change your account details during the training. There will be room for that.

    2. Thank you. I have seen my profile. I just discovered that I was given supervisor and I heard they have done training already. Please how true is this? If yes, do I still stand a chance

    3. No, that is false. Supervisors are yet to do training. Both Supervisors and Enumerators will do their training together, and neither of them has done training yet.

  14. Hello, I am not able to use to check for my information (the link you shared above isn't going through, it is saying "site is not safe") cause I didn't complete my registration and I wasn't expecting to be selected, I just got to know about a week ago that I was approved. As it is, I don't know if I chose anything or what i chose. Again, I didn't go for the screening so I want to know if I still stand a chance (despite being approved) because none of my documents were uploaded online during the registration process and if it is still possible to change my location at this time. I apologize for having to ask these many questions. Thank you

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Firstly, to check your status and if the website is showing you "site not safe" below the message you'll see something like "proceed to site unsafe", click on it, below it again, you'll see something like add exception, click on it and the site will open, or you can simply use Phoenix browser and save yourself from all these troubles.

      Secondly, so long you're approved, you're good to go, you're not the only candidate that did not go for screening but was shortlisted, don't worry about that.

      Thirdly, you can change your location using the steps stated in this article above.

      Lastly, no worries about the number of questions you ask. We're here to help. Feel free to ask as much questions as you can. Regards.

    1. Hello, they're about to do another refresher training for SWF, I'll advise you make time and join them, because switching to another position may get you no position at all. See it likes this, imagine the numbers of supervisors have already been gotten, do you want them to remove someone else and replace you? No it doesn't make sense. Your best bet is to fight for your current position, since they will soon do a refresher course in some few days. Go to the LGA secretariat or the location of the SWF training and join them and/or make enquiries to get first-hand information.

    1. Requirements for training is getting approved. So long a candidate has been approved, he/she has definitely pass all the screening requirements. You'll just have to wait for an SMS or mail from the commission indicating your screening schedule when the time comes. And for the screening date, it has not been officially announced yet. You can read more on that here: https://www.studyinnaija.com/2023/03/npc-to-reschedule-training-of.html</a

So change your browser or device and try again.

  33. Please mine is still pending , what will I do to be approved

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. To get approved, the honest answer to this is to either wait and do nothing, or head over the closest NPC office in your locality and look for any staff that can get you approved. It's a long short and there's no harm in trying. You could also come around and training and hang around, they are usually other candidates they keep as reserved because it's not all selected enumerators and supervisors that may end up doing the job, and that might be where you come in.

In your situation, if you do not receive an email, you should head over the closest training centre to your residence, or simply go to your screening location, from there, you will see the lists of each candidates per centre, and also you'll get to know your class number and every other details you need. Thank you.

Please I need your assistance, my NPC application status was approved but I edited my profile last month which I made two changes which includes State of residence and changing position from Enumerator to Supervisor.

    3. Hi, a lot of candidates are yet to receive messages about the screening yet, so you're not alone, but changing from Enumerator to supervisor was not a smart move if you ask me, except you add the result to back it up. Remember, supervisor is for ND holders.
