From today, if your NDIS plan is being reassessed, message us first. The Letter Check stays open, in English, Arabic and Vietnamese.

New plans and plans reassessed from 1 October 2026 have two budget allocations reset. Supports in the home, community nursing care, personal mobility equipment and Specialist Disability Accommodation are not changing (source: health.gov.au).

Send a photo of the letter to WhatsApp 0404 512 379. Someone at our Liverpool office tells you what it means, the same business day.

Half an allocation is not half of what you spend. If you were not using all of that allocation, your spending may not fall by half.

From 1 October 2026, for new plans and plans reassessed from that date, the budget allocation for social, civic and community participation is reduced by 50 per cent, and capacity building daily activities by 10 per cent. Everyone else from 1 February 2027, at plan renewal.

health.gov.au says this will not necessarily result in a 50 or 10 per cent reduction in how much you spend, because people may not be using all of their allocation.

How to tell: look at what you actually used from those two budgets, not what was allocated.

Tracheostomy. Ventilator. PEG feeding. Catheter care. Bowel care. Seizure management.

If someone in your family needs one of these, you may have rung a provider who went quiet when you said the word. Or one who said maybe, and never called back.

So here are the words, said plainly. Our Liverpool team supports people at home with each of these needs, in English, Arabic, Vietnamese, Dari and Turkish.

We are registered for high intensity support, and you can check the register yourself. Search NDIS Provider No. 4050154538 on the NDIS Commission provider register before you trust us.

If your NDIS plan is not being reassessed, nothing changes for you on Thursday 1 October.

Here is who the change reaches, and when:

1. New plans and plans reassessed from 1 October 2026. Two budget allocations are reset for these plans.
2. Everyone else, from 1 February 2027, when the plan is renewed. It rolls out progressively over 12 months.
3. Either way, you can ask for a plan variation within 90 days of the new support determination applying to you.

Our free workbook, Before your plan is reassessed, covers what stays the same and the 90 days after: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1okU67BQETEM4-i7ICV1Yii0QdfWCHOvD/view?usp=sharing

Prayer times move. So does our roster.

Prayer times shift through the year, so a support worker's start time should shift with them. We plan the roster around it, not the other way round.

Wudu is not a wash. Halal is not a preference. Ramadan is planned weeks ahead, not during. And if you ask for a female worker for personal care, you get one.

Our Liverpool office has Arabic speaking staff. Ask us which dialects, it is a fair question.

Holding SDA or SIL funding with nowhere to use it? We have homes in West and South-West Sydney ready to move into.

Every home is on one page, with its street address, its design category (High Physical Support or Improved Liveability) and when it is available. You can check the suburb and the drive before you call anyone.

Our support team comes with the home from the first day. The team is bilingual and bicultural, with particular depth for Arabic speaking families.

If you are wondering about 1 October: Specialist Disability Accommodation is one of the supports health.gov.au lists as not changing.

Before a reassessment, most people describe their best week. Write down your hardest one instead.

When a stranger asks how you are managing, you say you are managing. A plan built on a good week will not fit a hard one.

Four things to write down before the meeting:
1. Your hardest week, not your average one
2. What your family does unpaid, including prompting, reminding and supervising
3. What stopped working this year
4. What you would need to be safe

From 1 October 2026, some budget allocations change for new plans and for plans reassessed from that date (source: health.gov.au).

Our free workbook, Before your plan is reassessed, has space to write down all four. Download it here: https://crescentcare.org.au/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=organic_social&utm_campaign=sep26_workbook&utm_content=sep-09_en_carousel
