NDIS short term accommodation, now called short term respite: who qualifies, 28-day limits, 2026-27 price limits and how to book a stay.

When can an NDIS provider charge for a late cancellation or no-show? Notice periods, how much, programs of support and how to dispute a charge.

How to choose a SIL provider in Western Sydney: registration checks, questions to ask, costs, safety, leaving, plus a printable checklist.

Self-managed, plan-managed or NDIA-managed? Compare who pays providers, which providers you can use, 2026-27 plan management fees and how to switch.

How to get SIL in your NDIS plan: the evidence the NDIA needs, how a roster of care and SIL quote work, timeframes and review rights.

SIL pays for support workers, SDA pays for a specialist home, ILO funds a set-up you design. What each covers, what you pay and how to apply.

New framework plans, the April 2027 needs assessment and the 1 October 2026 budget cuts explained, plus what participants can do now.
