One place for NDIS paperwork, letters and advocacy
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) gives people with permanent and significant disability funding for the supports they need — but getting that funding, and keeping it right as life changes, runs on paperwork. Access requests, evidence forms, consent, plan changes and complaints each have their own form, their own purpose and their own way of being lodged, and the official explanations can be hard going when you are already carrying a lot.
Novida’s Resources hub brings the essentials together in one place: every official NDIS form explained in plain English, free letter templates you can copy and adapt, and a guide to free, independent advocacy. We are an independent directory, not the NDIA, so we don’t replace the official process — we make it easier to understand and act on, and we always link you to the current official copy.
Who these resources are for
They’re written for the people doing the paperwork: participants applying for or managing an NDIS plan, families and carers helping a loved one, nominees and support coordinators, and anyone helping a person with disability be heard. You don’t need an account, and everything here is free.
How to use this hub
Start with the section that matches what you need. Browse NDIS forms to understand what a form is for before you fill it in; open Letters & templates for ready-made wording you can adapt; or visit Advocacy & rights to find someone independent to speak up with you. When you’re ready to act, every form links to the official download, and you can search verified providers and support coordinators on Novida to help you along the way.
Common questions
- Are these the official NDIS forms?
- The forms are the official ones — every form links straight to the current copy on ndis.gov.au, ndiscommission.gov.au or health.gov.au. What Novida adds is a plain-English explanation of what each form is for, who fills it in, and how to submit it. Always download and lodge the current official version.
- Do the letter templates cost anything?
- No. The letters and statements are free to copy, adapt and use. They are written by Novida as a starting point — edit them to fit your own situation and attach your own evidence.
- What is a disability advocate, and does it cost money?
- An advocate is an independent person who helps you understand your rights and speak up — with the NDIA, a provider or another service. Advocacy funded through the National Disability Advocacy Program is free and confidential. Use the Disability Advocacy Finder to find one near you.
- Can Novida fill in a form or lodge it for me?
- No — Novida is an independent directory, not the NDIA, and we can’t submit forms on your behalf. We help you find providers and support coordinators, and explain the forms and process so you can act with confidence. A support coordinator or advocate can help you complete and lodge forms.
- The form looks different to your description — why?
- The NDIA updates its forms from time to time. The official website is always the source of truth, so if the official copy differs from our summary, follow the official version and let us know so we can update our explanation.
