Sample of NYSC Relocation Letter on Marital Grounds

If you are a married female corps member who wants to serve in the same state as your husband, you may be wondering how to apply for NYSC relocation on marital grounds.

In this blog post, I will show you a sample of NYSC relocation letter on marital grounds and explain the steps you need to follow to get your relocation approved.

NYSC relocation on marital grounds is one of the four legal grounds for redeployment that NYSC allows. The other three are health, insecurity, and DG directive.

To qualify for relocation on marital grounds, you must provide evidence that you are married and that your husband lives in a different state from where you were posted.

The evidence you need to provide includes:

• Marriage certificate
• Newspaper change of name
• Letter from your husband stating his state of residence
• Utility bill or any other proof of address
• ID card of your husband

You also need to write a formal letter to the Director General of NYSC requesting for relocation on marital grounds.

The letter should state your name, call-up number, state code, current state of deployment, desired state of relocation, and reason for relocation. You should also attach copies of the documents mentioned above.

APPLICATION FOR RELOCATION ON MARITAL GROUNDS

I, Oluwakemi Adeola Ojo, with call-up number NYSC/ABJ/2024/123456 and state code AB/24A/1234, wish to apply for relocation from Abia State to Lagos State on marital grounds.

I got married on 15th January 2024 to Mr. Oladapo Ojo who resides and works in Lagos State. I have attached copies of my marriage certificate, newspaper change of name, letter from my husband, utility bill, and ID card for your perusal.

I humbly request that my application be granted as soon as possible to enable me join my husband and avoid any marital challenges.

Thank you for your kind consideration.

Yours faithfully,

Oluwakemi Adeola Ojo
