New Users - read carefully!: To set up a new account, you will need a "certificate" number. All new employees will receive a registration letter from Ameritas containing your certificate number. If you have lost this information or are an existing member who has never set up an online account then FIRST download and complete the Web Certificate Request form, or contact NPERS at 800-245-5712 (Lincoln area 471-2053) and request an Online Account Access registration letter. This letter will contain a certificate number. To see a sample copy of this letter click HERE. After you have your certificate number you must go to the Ameritas website and register using that certificate number to establish your userID and password. Registration Instructions - Be sure to carefully read the onscreen instructions found on each page. Click HERE to go to the Ameritas website (browser will open in new window). You will be directed to this page: Click on one of the "Register" links. You will be directed to the Registration User Agreement Page: Review the user agreement and click on the "Accept" button at the bottom of the page: You will then be directed to the Registration Page. Enter your Social Security number, Name, Date of Birth and certificate number from the registration letter. You do not need an email address to register but it is recommended. This email is used to notify you when you have a secure message in your inbox on the website. This email is also used if you forget your password and need it reset. If you already have an email address on file you WILL need to re-enter it. Scroll down and enter what you wish to use for your User ID and Password. Select a security question and provide the answer. Click on the "Submit" button. If you have completed the registration process correctly you will be directed to the registration confirmation screen where you may sign on using your new User ID and Password. If you have NOT completed the registration process correctly you will be redirected to the registration page. Look for the red error text (example below) to determine which fields contain incorrect information. Correct those fields and again click on the "Submit" button.
