NYSC Redeployment (Process and Requirements)
The next thing to do after your NYSC redeployment approval is to go directly to your new state for documentation.
You have no business with the former state again.
Upon arrival at the zonal office in your new state, you will be given a new CDS group and place of primary assignment or ask you to find one by yourself.
For example, Martins checked his call-up letter and found Gombe.
He does not want to serve for 11 months in Gombe because of some reasons known to him, so he is planning to redeploy to Rivers State during orientation camp.
He took the redeployment form in camp or online, and it worked.
He is then redeployed to Rivers State.
So now, after camp, Martins will travel to Rivers and go straight to Rivers NYSC secretariat to show the L.I and officials his relocation letter and other requirements.
After documentation, he’ll be given a new state code, CDS group, L.G.A, and PPA in Rivers State.
NYSC Redeployment
For those that redeployed, the NYSC state secretariat in your new state is where you will take your approval letter to.
After leaving camp or your former state, you don’t need to wait for any text or email.
Visit the state secretariat in your new state to begin your documentation.
You can’t enter the secretariat gate without being on NYSC kit.
- Be on full 7/7 or on 6/7.
- Wear white sneakers or jungle boot.
- Wear your crested shirt or a plain white top.
Your first day is to just submit your letter, the one you printed showing approval successfully.
Once submitted, you will be given a date to come back.
Before that day, your state code would have changed to your new state code.
After submitting the approval letter, if you are lucky your state code will change after 1 or 2 days, if not it will be the 3, 4, 5, or 6th day, the maximum day for state code to change is 7 days after submission of approval letter.
You will return to the secretariat after your state code changes.
This is when registration starts properly.
You will be given a white file, inside you will see a bio-data form, fill it, your o level grades will be needed.
You will put your green card and call up letter.
Before submitting the file back, you must have gone to write your name in the book of life.
Drop your account number in the account section.
Snap passport with crested shirt.
After these you can submit the file, a day after submission you will be posted to your PPA.
But if you have a company that you know they usually collect and pay corps members, go there and collect a request letter.
Don’t submit the file without putting a request letter (this is for those who want to dictate their PPA) because once you submit, you will be posted anywhere.
If the required documents to be affixed inside the file aren’t complete, you can take the file home and bring it back whenever you are ready.
Medical Report for Redeployment
This medical report is to be issued by a doctor to support a corps member’s request for redeployment from their current place of primary assignment or state to a new PPA or state because of health reasons.
The medical report should include:
- The corps member’s name, call-up number, and current PPA.
- The doctor’s name, address, and contact information.
- The diagnosis of the corps member’s medical condition.
- The doctor’s opinion on whether the corps member’s medical condition makes it difficult for them to serve at their current PPA.
- The doctor’s recommendation for a new PPA.
- The medical report should be signed and dated by the doctor.
If you are requesting redeployment for health reasons, submit a medical report.
NYSC will review the medical report and decide on whether to approve your request.
When getting a medical report, do these:
- Go to a reputable hospital or clinic.
- Make an appointment with a doctor who is familiar with the redeployment requirements.
- Bring your NYSC call-up letter and any other relevant medical records to your appointment.
- Be clear about your medical condition and why you are requesting to move.
- Ask the doctor to write a detailed medical report that supports your request.
