NDIA decision
the NDIA will review your application and confirm if you’re approved.
We’ll be by your side through the whole journey, from paperwork to your first plan and beyond.
Private Funding
Not all supports need to come through the NDIS. Some people choose to pay privately for care — either as a temporary solution while waiting for funding, or to access additional supports beyond their plan. Connect Home Care makes this process simple, flexible, and transparent.
Government Funding Options
Alongside the NDIS, there are other government-funded supports that may help:
State or community-based programs – depending on where you live
Short-term or transitional programs – for people waiting on NDIS approvals
Our team will help you explore all options, so you don’t miss out on any funding available to you.
Frequently Asked Questions
(FAQ)
Is funding only through the NDIS?
No. You can also access care privately or through other government schemes, like My Aged Care.
Can I get both SIL and SDA funded?
Yes. SIL (the support) and SDA (the home) are separate parts of your plan.
What if my application is denied?
You can request a review. We can help prepare the right documents to strengthen your case.
