If you’re applying for the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS), you’re probably wondering — how much funding will I actually receive? The truth is, there’s no fixed amount. NDIS plans are completely individual and based on your needs, your goals, and what supports are considered reasonable and necessary.
However, to give you a general idea:
-
The average NDIS plan in Australia sits between $45,000 and $55,000 per year.
-
For participants who require Supported Independent Living (SIL) or 24/7 care, plans can be much higher — sometimes exceeding $150,000 to $300,000 annually.
-
On the other hand, people with lower support needs (such as therapy or community access only) may receive smaller plans ranging from $10,000 to $25,000 per year.
What Determines Your NDIS Funding?
Your total budget depends on:
-
Type of disability and functional impact
-
Frequency of supports required (daily, weekly or occasional)
-
Goals you outline in your planning meeting
-
Type of living arrangement — home, with family, or supported housing
