Where must you live to be eligible for NDIS?

• A. Anywhere in Australia.
• B. Only in major cities.
• C. Nearly all of Australia where NDIS is available.
• D. Only in rural areas.

Answer: (C)

Access to the NDIS depends on the scheme being available in your area. The NDIS has been rolled out across most of Australia, so if you live in an area where it operates and you meet the other eligibility requirements, you can access supports. It isn’t limited to major cities, and it isn’t automatically available in every remote location, which is why the correct idea is that you must live in nearly all of Australia where the NDIS is available. In short, eligibility to access supports is tied to living in an area where the NDIS is implemented, not to a specific city or rural designation.
