NDIS APPEALS
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is how support is funded for Australians with disability, their families
and carers.
The NDIS helps people with disability to:
-
access mainstream services and supports
-
access community services and supports
-
maintain informal support arrangements
-
receive reasonable and necessary funded supports, including therapies and equipment
Assistance from the NDIS is not means tested and has no impact on income support such as the Disability Support Pension and Carers Allowance.
The NDIS has a YouTube channel where you can watch many easy to follow videos about how the NDIS works and what it might mean for you:
What can we do?
Is your NDIS Plan unsuitable for you?
Has the National Disability Insurance Agency told you that you are not eligible for services to be funded by the NDIS?
We can help you to apply for a review of the decision or we can help with a full appeal to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT). Our Centrelink and the AAT Fact Sheet will provide you with valuable information about how the Administrative Appeals Tribunals works.
Who is eligible?
Anyone who has applied for a plan of supports from the NDIS and is not satisfied with the outcome.
More information: information, forms, easy read and audio versions are available here from the Department of Social Services.
