New Anncouncemnt from NDIA 9 May 2020
NDIS participants who are plan or Agency managed can now use their core funds across ALL core funding categories.
That means you no longer need at least $1 in a category to move your funds around.
In practical terms that means:
😃 You can use your core funds in the way that works best for you without having to ask for a review.
📱 If you need a smart device to continue your support at this time you can now buy one with your core funds. You can do this even if you don’t have a budget for consumables.
🚗 You can use your core funds for transport.
The transport one admittedly comes with a few “buts”. If you receive a periodic transport payment you can’t use that flexibly – you must use if for transport costs.
