What is NYSC Bank Account Limit?

When you join the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), you’ll have a bank account opened for you to receive your monthly stipend from the Nigerian government.

This account is known as the NYSC bank account, and it’s where your “Allawee” is paid into every month.

Even if you already have a bank account, you’ll need to create a new one during your orientation camp to receive your stipend.

But what’s the limit on this NYSC bank account? Let’s find out!

How Much Can NYSC Bank Account Hold?

The NYSC bank account typically has a limit of 500,000 naira, based on the documents you provide during account opening.

Most NYSC accounts are opened with your Bank Verification Number (BVN) and a simple means of identification, like your NYSC call-up letter.

How to Increase NYSC Bank Account Limit

If you want to increase the limit on your account, you can visit the bank with additional valid means of identification, such as your National Identification Number (NIN), Voter’s card, or international passport.

Upgrading your account will allow you to receive larger amounts, even running into millions of naira.

To summarize, the NYSC bank account is specifically for receiving your monthly stipend during your service year.

The limit is initially set at 500,000 naira, but you can increase it by providing more valid means of identification.
