Accessing the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS): A Step-by-Step Guide
Are you eligible?
Apply for the NDIS
To be eligible for the NDIS, a person must have a disability that is likely to be permanent and significantly affect their ability to take part in everyday activities. They must also be an Australian citizen or hold a permanent visa.
If you think you may be eligible for the NDIS contact us and we'll assist you with completing an access request form. This form will ask for information about your disability and how it affects your daily life. You may also be asked to provide medical or other evidence to support your request.

Connect with services
Review your NDIS plan
Once you're eligible for the NDIS, you'll be invited to develop a plan with the NDIS to outline the supports and services you need. This plan will be based on your individual needs and goals, and will be reviewed on a regular basis to ensure it is meeting your needs and helping you progress towards your goals.
To get started using your NDIS plan, you'll need to choose providers who are registered with the NDIS to deliver the supports and services you need. It's important to choose providers who are skilled and experienced in delivering the supports and services you need, and who align with your needs and preferences.
As an NDIS participant, it's important to review your NDIS plan regularly to ensure it is meeting your needs and helping you progress towards your goals. A review of your plan is an opportunity to make any necessary changes or adjustments to your supports and services to better meet your needs.
To request a review of your NDIS plan, you can contact the NDIS directly or ask your support coordinator to assist you.
