The Civil Defence, Correctional, Fire and Immigration Services Board (CDCFIB) has rescheduled the commencement of its online recruitment process for four key paramilitary agencies under its authority.
The application portal will now officially open on Monday, July 14, 2025, instead of the previously announced date of Thursday, June 26, 2025.
This update is in line with CDCFIB’s ongoing nationwide recruitment into the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Federal Fire Service (FFS), and Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS).
Correction on the Recruitment Portal Address
The Board also issued a correction regarding the official recruitment portal, which is now confirmed as: www.cdcfib.gov.ng. It urged applicants to disregard any other links or unauthorised platforms.
“The CDCFIB wishes to correct an error and inform the general public that its recruitment portal, which was earlier slated to open on Thursday, 26th June, 2025, will now open on Monday, 14th July, 2025. Also, the Board’s portal of prospective applicants desiring to apply for the Service of their choice is now: cdcfib.gov.ng.”
The Board emphasised that the entire application process is completely free, warning against any form of payment to individuals or groups claiming to offer help with the process.
“Applicants are kindly requested to take note of the above changes, as well as be reminded that all applications are free and do not attract any payment.”
It also apologised for any inconvenience the date change might have caused and urged applicants to remain alert to official updates only.
