GUIDE TO ELIGIBILITY

1. Immediately request a change of circumstances plan review

2. Find an Occupational Therapist (OT) who specialises in housing reports/solutions

3. Prepare a housing plan application

4. Lodge your housing plan to the NDIA

Once your housing plan has been lodged you will have the opportunity to meet with the Support Provider that will be delivering the onsite overnight support.

Together you will discuss all your support needs and make a plan which will be recorded into a separate Supported Independent Living (SIL) quote which will be prepared and lodged to the NDIA by the approved Support Provider.

Having received approval for SDA and SIL from the NDIS it is time to make arrangements for move in day. Ability SDA and the Support Provider will be on hand to help you transition into your new apartment.

*The participant will sign a standard residential tenancy agreement.
