Getting Started

In this lesson you will learn how to sign onto NIS and how to navigate to Open Enrollment.

Steps:

1. To sign onto NIS you will first need to go to the website nis.ne.gov. 

    

   NOTE: Do not use "www" when typing in the address.

   Step 1

2. To sign onto NIS click on the Sign on to NIS button.

   Step 2

3. When you sign onto NIS you will need to be sure you type your User ID and your password correctly.  If you enter it incorrectly three times in a row the system disables your User ID.  If that happens contact the IMS Help Desk (402-471-4636 or 1-800-982-2468) to restore it.
