You can make your access request either Verbally over the phone by calling the NDIA on 1800 800 110, or by completing a Request Access Form. 

When making your Access Request, the NDIA will ask you a series of questions about yourself and your disability.

Your doctor or other health professional may also be required to submit evidence related to your disability and its impact on your life. This is also known as the “gathering of support information” stage. There is an NDIS guide on how to provide evidence of a disability, you can read it by clicking on this link.

Please note: If completing the paper form, you will require the assistance of a health professional to complete Part F of the form.
