  1. Step-by-Step Guide to Using the NDIS

  2. The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) was created to provide individualised help to Australians with disabilities. If you think you could qualify for NDIS assistance but haven't looked into it yet, we'll walk you through the steps you need to do to get started.

  3. Examine Your Eligibility Despite the fact that the NDIS assists over 400,000 people each year, there are still severe eligibility requirements to complete before you may receive NDIS support. If you're not sure if you're eligible, visit the NDIS website and answer their questions before moving on to the next step.

  4. Complete the form Once you've determined whether you're eligible, you'll need to fill out an Access Request Form, which can be downloaded from the NDIS website. You must notify yourself, as well as your location, legal guardian, and impairment. The Access Request Form is somewhat extensive, and you may need assistance learning or filling it out. After you've completed this form, send it to the NDIS via email, mail, or your local National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) office.

  5. Make sure you're ready for a planning meeting You'll be invited to present at an NDIS planning meeting in person, online, or over the phone once the NDIA has examined and accepted your Access Request Form. This discussion digs a little deeper into who you are, what services you currently use, and what support you might need in the future from different NDIS providers to help you achieve your goals.

  6. Make use of a plan manager You may be feeling a bit overwhelmed at this point in your quest for NDIS assistance, which is totally normal. If your NDIS exploration becomes stressful, it's a good idea to request a plan manager during your planning meeting. A plan manager can help you leverage your money, negotiate estimates with NDIS providers, and keep track of your finances and budget to ensure you don't overspend or underspend at no additional cost.
