The proposal would raise the age cap for eligibility for the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) by one year every 2 years.
This means a 65 year old (who is currently not in the NDIS) can access the NDIS from 1 July 2026, a 66 year old can access the NDIS from 1 July 2028 and so forth.
The proposal would start on 1 July 2026 and would be ongoing.
