NDIS Eligibility Criteria
To determine if you are eligible for the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), you need to meet several criteria. Here’s a simplified breakdown:
Age Requirements:
- You must be between 9 and 65 years old. For children under 9, early childhood partners can help with early intervention services.
Residency Requirements:
- You must live in Australia and be an Australian citizen, a permanent resident, or hold a Protected Special Category Visa.
Disability Requirements:
- You must have a permanent and significant disability that substantially reduces your ability to perform daily activities.
- The impairment can be intellectual, cognitive, neurological, sensory, physical, or psychosocial.
Early Intervention Requirements (if applicable):
- If you require early intervention to reduce future support needs, you may be eligible. This is typically for conditions that can benefit from early support to improve long-term outcomes.
