Who Is Eligible for SDA Funding Through the NDIS?

For a participant to qualify for SDA under the NDIS, they:

• Must have an extreme functional impairment or very high support needs
• Must require person-to-person care beyond what can be provided by assistive technology or home modifications.
• Must have their application assessed and approved by the NDIA, and an SDA housing goal in their NDIS plan
• Must complete the Home and Living Supports Request Form at planning or review
• Require a specific SDA design category: Improved Liveability, Robust, Fully Accessible, or High Physical Support

How to Access SDA Through NDIS?

The journey to accessing SDA under the NDIS involves a structured process that must be followed so that persons with high functional impairment are provided with suitable housing.

• Eligibility Assessment: The first step is making sure that the person demonstrates that SDA is a “reasonable and necessary” support to achieve their NDIS goals. In general, this requires substantial evidence, including assessment reports from one or more allied health practitioners describing the person’s support needs and how SDA would improve their quality of life.
• Application Process: Participants must complete the Home and Living Supports Request Form, setting out their housing goals and needs. This form, along with supporting documentation, is prepared and lodged with the National Disability Insurance Agency for evaluation.
• Funding Approval: If approved, SDA funding will be incorporated into the participant’s NDIS plan, outlining the specific housing and level of support required.
• Finding Suitable Accommodation: With approved SDA funding, participants may then work with registered SDA providers wishing to identify a suitable housing option.
• Compass Care Group Support: As one of the leading specialist disability accommodation providers in Perth, Compass Care Group provides a range of housing services specially adapted to each person’s unique needs to ensure a safe, accessible, and well-supported place to live.
