Three budgets
Most plans have Core Supports, Capacity Building and Capital budgets. Core is often the most flexible; Capacity Building and Capital are usually tied to specific supports.
Keeping track
You can check your balances in the my NDIS app or portal. If you're plan-managed, your plan manager sends regular statements.
When your needs change
If your circumstances change, for example after a hospital stay, you can ask the NDIA for a plan variation or reassessment. Keep evidence of the change.
This is general information, not advice about your situation. NDIS rules change, so check ndis.gov.au or talk to our team.
