Eligibility for Support Coordination
Unlike Plan Management, Support Coordination is not available to everyone who has an NDIS plan. Only certain people are eligible to receive the support. The funds come from the “Capacity Building” budget and it is usually expected to decrease from plan to plan as participants become better able to manage their own plans.
NDIS participants that are likely to be granted funding for Support Coordination will:
- Be able to develop the necessary skills to navigate the NDIS independently
- Have limited or no informal support, for example from a relative
- Be likely to get a tangible benefit from Support Coordination
- Be new to the NDIS or are going through a significant life transition

Requesting a plan review
If you disagree with a decision in your NDIS plan or have a change in circumstances, you can ask for a plan review at any time. Each case is considered by the NDIA. You will need to provide evidence to support your request in order for it to be approved.
If you are requesting a plan review for the purpose of asking for Support Coordination funding you should be ready with your supporting documents to have a better chance of being successful.

Contact the NDIS to request a review
Submit the request by emailing or calling the NDIA
It may take some time, wait patiently and follow up if necessary
Preparation is key
Most support budgets in NDIS plans will only be approved if the participant can provide evidence that they will benefit from the support, and it will help them achieve their goals.
It is important that you are prepared for your planning meeting to have a better chance of being approved for the funding you need to lead an ordinary life. Gathering evidence to back up your need for support, as well as thinking about how to word goals will increase the chances of receiving more funding in a your NDIS plan.
