The NDIS is still relatively new, so it’s no surprise that there are a few myths floating around. Let’s clear them up:
Myth: “The NDIS is only for children.”
Fact: The NDIS supports people of all ages under 65.
Myth: “You can only use registered providers.”
Fact: If you are self-managed or plan-managed, you can also use non-registered providers.
Myth: “NDIS pays for everything.”
Fact: The NDIS only funds disability-related supports—not everyday expenses like rent, groceries, or bills.
Myth: “It’s too hard to apply.”
Fact: Yes, it can be a process, but there are many organisations (and providers like us) who can guide you.
Myth: “The NDIS decides what’s best for me.”
Fact: The NDIS is about choice and control—you are at the centre of your plan.
