Figuring out whether you or a loved one qualifies for the NDIS can feel overwhelming — especially when you are not sure where to start.
The good news is that you do not need to have all the answers before reaching out. At Spry Support Services, we help participants and families understand their options, whether they are brand new to the NDIS or already have a plan in place.
This page walks you through the basics of NDIS eligibility and what to do next — no jargon, no pressure.
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a government-funded program that provides support to Australians living with a permanent and significant disability.
Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, the NDIS creates an individual plan for each participant — funding the supports and services that help them live more independently, pursue their goals, and participate in their community.
Funding can be used across a wide range of supports, including daily living assistance, accommodation, therapy, community participation, and more.
The NDIS is managed by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA), and Spry Support Services is a registered NDIS provider here to help you make the most of your plan.
To be eligible for the NDIS, you generally need to meet all four of the following criteria. If you are unsure whether you qualify, our team can help you work through your situation.

Meeting these criteria does not guarantee approval, but it is a strong starting point. The NDIA assesses each application individually. If you are unsure, reach out to our team — we are happy to help you understand your options.
Many people who are unsure about their eligibility are surprised to find they do qualify — or that there are other pathways available to them. We encourage you to reach out regardless.
There is no obligation and no cost to speak with our team. We are here to help you find the right path forward.
