Frequently asked questions
What Support Can I Get From NDIS?
Support have to be reasonable and necessary and also:
- Help you with your goals and aspiration
- Developing your capacity to actively participate in community activities.
- Fostering independence
- Increasing your economic and social participation
- Represent value for money
This would include things like learning, work, daily living, accommodation, equipment/assistive technology, health, transport and hobbies.
How Much Funding Will I Get?
NDIS are the ones that will determine how much funding you will receive your plan.
The NDIS looks at your goals and decides what reasonable and necessary supports you would need to achieve them. They will take into account your age, stage of life, primary disability, functional impairment, living situation and your informal support.
What Happens After You Are 65 Years Old?
Once you turn 65 years after you have already been an NDIS participant, you will have a choice. This would be to continue to receive disability support in the NDIS or receive support through the Commonwealth aged care system.
Why Has My Application Not Been Successful When Applied For NDIS?
It is likely because the NDIS does not think you met the eligibility criteria (check out the eligibility criteria. The NDIS may have identified that your supports are best delivered by other service systems. To know more, visit the page on the NDIS website about support for people who are not eligible.
How Would I Receive My Plan?
You will receive notification from the NDIS by your preferred mode of communication (usually email or letter) let you know your new plan is active. It will contain your myplace portal activation code, which expires within 10 days.
About 24 hours after your plan has been approved, it will be available on the NDIS myplace portal so it’s worth checking to see if the plan has been uploaded. You will usually also receive a printed copy of your plan in the mail.
Who Is A Support Coordinator?
A Support Coordinator is someone who would support you to understand and implement the funded supports in your plan and link you to community, mainstream and other government services.
- Help you to understand the plan
- Linking you to service providers
- Helping you negotiate with providers, ensure service agreements and service bookings are in place
- Assist you in planning ahead for your plan review
- Help ensure you get the most out of your plan and funded support by thinking outside the box.
There are levels of support coordination depending on the complexity of support required.
