How do you get SDA?

SDA usually needs strong evidence and clear planning.


A support coordinator can help you organise assessments, gather supporting evidence, and guide you through the SDA application process


To get SDA in your NDIS plan, you usually need:

01

Evidence from health professionals (such as an Occupational Therapist)

02

A Home and Living assessment

03

Information about your support needs

04

A request to the NDIS during a plan meeting or review

The NDIS decides if SDA is reasonable and necessary.

  • What is SDA accommodation?

    SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation) is housing designed for people with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs. It includes accessible features that can make it easier and safer to live at home.

  • Who is SDA for?

    SDA is generally for a small group of NDIS participants who meet specific SDA eligibility and funding criteria, often linked to very high support needs.

  • How is SDA different from SIL?

    SDA is the home. SIL is the support inside the home.


    SDA funding relates to the housing design and “bricks and mortar”. SIL funding relates to daily living supports delivered in the home.

  • Can I live in SDA without SIL?

    Sometimes, yes. Some people have SDA funding but use different supports in the home, depending on their plan and needs. Others have both SDA and SIL.

  • What does SDA funding pay for?

    SDA funding supports the cost of specialist housing features. It is separate from day-to-day living costs and separate from in-home support hours.

  • What are the SDA design categories?

    There are four SDA design categories: Improved Liveability, Robust, Fully Accessible, and High Physical Support.

  • Are the properties on this page owned by Chosen Family?

    No. Chosen Family is not an SDA provider. The listings shown are from our SDA network partners.

  • If I like a property, what happens next?

    If you share which listing you’re interested in, we can connect you with the SDA provider or partner managing that vacancy and support you to understand the next steps.

  • Do you provide SIL in SDA homes?

    We provide SIL with 1:1 support only. If the home and your plan are the right fit, we can talk about how 1:1 SIL could work alongside SDA.
