Hi @Mafia8540

What are you attempting to connect to via NFC? When you go to Settings > Connections > NFC and Payment > Does the 'On' switch turn blue and highlight when flipped to the right?

Have you enabled NFC on both phones? Have you tried enabling Android Bean in the NFC settings and gently placing the phones back to back when attempting the connection? For clarity the NFC symbol will only appear in your status bar when a successful connection has been established.

Sorry to hear that, @Mafia8540. What are you attempting to share via NFC? As an example if you wanted to share a photo you can go to Apps > Gallery > Select relevant photo > Tap the 'Share via' symbol (three circles connected in a triangular shape) > Android Beam > Bring the 2 phones close together, back to back. If this doesn't work then you may wish to utilise Bluetooth as this will achieve the same goal without the need to close proximity.
