NDIS

To be eligible for NDIS, you must be an Australian citizen, permanent resident, or a New Zealand citizen who holds a Protected Special Category Visa. You must also have a permanent and significant disability that affects your ability to perform everyday tasks and requires support.

You can apply for NDIS by completing an Access Request Form, which can be found on the NDIS website or obtained from a local NDIS office. You will need to provide information about your disability, your support needs, and any relevant medical or other reports.

The support you can receive from NDIS depends on your individual needs and goals. It may include funding for assistive technology, personal care, transport, therapy, and other services that help you live an ordinary life.

NDIS is funded by the Australian government. It is paid for through a combination of general taxation revenue and a special levy on some taxpayers.
