How does the NDIS decide if an application will be successful?

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a government-sponsored program that provides service and support to Australians with significant or permanent disability. Individuals with various disabilities access the needed support that leads independent life. The process of NDIS application can be complex and overwhelming, so knowing details about a successful application is essential:

Making Decision

• After submitting all the documents and information to the NDIS, they will decide if you are eligible for the funding.
•  You will get a letter and know about the NDIS decision, known as ‘assess decision’. 

Find Out If You Are Eligible

• If your condition is affecting your daily activities and coordinating with the society or community 
• If the disability affects your functional capacity, communication, mobility, learning, self-care, social interaction or self-management
• Must follow the age, residency and early intervention criteria

Decision Making Process

• NDIS assess each participant individually in a person-centred approach and considers unique circumstances, needs and goals to support the needs of the applicant
• NDIS planners review the application with the provided documents through a review panel and decide based on the NDIs Act of eligibility criteria and guidance. 
• Applicants are given a written statement of the decision’s outcome, including the reason for the decision. If they disagree with the decision, they can also file a review.
