NDIS Funding Estimator

Get a Clear Picture of Your Potential NDIS Funding

One of the most common questions people ask when considering the NDIS is: “How much funding could I receive?” The answer depends on a range of factors including your disability type, the level of support you need in daily life, and the goals you want to achieve. The InLife NDIS Funding Estimator is a free tool that gives you an indicative breakdown of what your NDIS plan funding could look like, helping you plan ahead with greater confidence.

How Are Estimates Calculated?

The estimator asks you a series of questions about your disability, your current support needs across areas like personal care, community access, employment, and therapy, and the goals you are working towards. It then references the current NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits, combined with aggregated data on typical funding allocations for participants with similar profiles, to generate a personalised estimate across Core Supports, Capacity Building, and Capital Supports.

Who Benefits From Using This Tool?

The Funding Estimator is designed for anyone who wants to better understand the NDIS funding landscape. If you are about to apply for the NDIS for the first time, this tool can help set realistic expectations about what your plan might include. If you are a current participant approaching a plan review, it can help you identify whether your current funding aligns with typical allocations. Families, carers, and support coordinators also find it useful as a conversation starter when planning supports.

Important Disclaimer

The figures generated by this tool are estimates only and do not represent a commitment or guarantee of NDIS funding from the NDIA. Actual NDIS plan funding is determined by the NDIA on a case-by-case basis, taking into account your individual evidence, the reasonable and necessary criteria, and your specific circumstances. This tool is intended as a general guide to help you understand potential funding levels and should not be relied upon as financial or professional advice. For personalised guidance, we recommend speaking with a support coordinator, Local Area Coordinator, or our team at InLife.
