## Why Is the Wrong Year Showing on the Slip?

There are a few reasons why your examination slip might display a previous year:

- **Wrong Profile or Old Account:**
Many candidates mistakenly log in with their old JAMB profile (from 2025 or 2026) instead of creating or using a fresh 2027 profile.
- **System Cache Issue:**
Sometimes your browser may load an old slip from a previous registration because it saved it in your cache or browsing history.
- **Wrong Details Used for Reprinting:**
If you enter an old registration number, old email, or old phone number, the system will show your previous registration slip.
- **JAMB Portal Synchronization Delay:**
Occasionally, the 2027 data may still be uploading fully to all servers, leading to confusion between old and new records.

## What You Should Do to Fix It

If your slip is showing 2025 or 2026 instead of 2027:

- **Confirm You Are Using Your 2027 Registration Details:**
Use the new registration number or new phone number you used for your 2027 JAMB registration when trying to reprint.
- **Clear Your Browser Cache:**
Clear your browsing history or try reprinting using a different browser or device.
Sometimes your browser brings up an old file that is stored locally.
- **Use the JAMB Reprint Portal Directly:**
Visit the official JAMB slip reprinting link directly through the JAMB website and input only your 2027 information.
- **Visit a JAMB Accredited Centre:**
If after trying all these steps your slip still shows the wrong year, visit the nearest [accredited CBT centre](/jamb-cbt-centres-for-utme-de-in-nigeria/) or JAMB office.
They can access your correct 2025 record and help you reprint properly.

## Important Reminder

The reprinted slip must show:

- The correct year: **2027**,
- Your updated details including the new exam date, time, and venue.

If you mistakenly carry a slip showing an old year like 2025 or 2026 to the examination centre,
you will not be allowed to sit for the 2027 UTME.

## Final Advice

If your slip shows 2025 or 2026,
do not panic — but act immediately.

Use your 2027 registration details, clear your cache, and if the problem continues, visit a [JAMB](https://www.jamb.gov.ng/) office or CBT centre to get it corrected.

The 2027 UTME will begin officially on **Thursday, 22nd April 2027**, and candidates must have the correct slip to gain entry into the examination hall.

Stay calm, follow the right steps, and make sure everything is set before your exam day.
