All NDIS funded supports must meet our NDIS funding criteria.
Each individual reasonable and necessary support in your plan must meet the NDIS funding criteria.
Your whole plan as a package of supports must also meet the NDIS funding criteria.
Below are some questions to ask yourself. They can help you think about whether we’ll consider funding what you want.
Are the vehicle modifications and driving supports:
Do you need the vehicle modifications and driving supports because of your disability?
You may need extra support to use a car or other type of vehicle because of your disability.
We can only fund vehicle modifications and driving supports that relate to your disability.
We can’t fund vehicle modifications and driving supports if they’re not related to your disability.
This means you have to pay for things like the vehicle itself, registration, insurance, fuel, vehicle repairs and maintenance.
These are costs that everyone who has a vehicle needs to pay, whether or not they have a disability.
But if you need changes made to your vehicle because of your disability, we might be able to help.
These changes would help you use the vehicle where you might not otherwise be able to because of the effects of your disability.
We might also help you with any extra insurance or inspection costs you have because you have a vehicle modified so people with disability can use it.
