What is the NDIS?
The NDIS provides funding to eligible Australians with disability and connects people with disability to supports in their local community. This article explains what the NDIS is, who it’s for, what it means to become an NDIS participant, and what support may still be available if someone is ineligible for NDIS supports.
Principles the NDIA Follows Creating Plans
NDIS plans are built using legislated rules and a set of planning principles intended to support fairness, consistency, and financial sustainability. This article explains what those principles are, how the NDIA applies “reasonable and necessary” criteria, and what supports can and can’t be funded.
Applying to the NDIS: Eligibility, Evidence & Processes
Applying to the NDIS is a structured process with clear eligibility and evidence requirements. This guide explains what the NDIA assess, how to prepare a strong application, what the process is, and what options exist if someone is found not eligible. Assistance for participants, families, and supporters.
Understanding the NDIS: A Guide
The NDIS can feel like a new language at first: plans, partners, “reasonable and necessary,” and a lot of moving parts. This guide breaks the scheme down including what it is, who it’s for, what it funds, and who you’ll likely interact with along the way.
Introducing PACE: A New Billing System by NDIA
The NDIA’s new PACE billing system is designed to make NDIS plans easier to understand and manage. Learn what changes under PACE including broader funding categories, more flexibility, and how/when existing plans will transition at renewal, review, or rollover.
Understanding Letters of Support for NDIS
NDIS letters of support help the NDIA decide whether a support meets “reasonable and necessary” criteria especially for assistive technology and items that may be questioned at review. Learn who these letters are for, why they matter, when they’re required, and when they’re strongly recommended. The goal is to help you gather the right evidence early so reviews, reassessments, and funding decisions run smoother.
