Frequently asked questions

What is SIL accommodation under NDIS?
SIL pays for agreed help or supervision with daily tasks at home for people with high support needs. It is separate from housing and everyday living costs. Individual arrangements are limited, and community access or transport should be checked separately against the plan.
How do I get SIL accommodation in Melbourne?
The NDIA must approve SIL funding based on your support needs; an assessment alone is not approval. SIL is generally for people needing help or supervision throughout the day and overnight. Contact intake to discuss the relevant service and current availability rather than assuming a particular housing option is available.
What is the difference between SIL and SDA?
SIL (Supported Independent Living) funds the support workers who help you in your home. SDA (Specialist Disability Accommodation) funds the physical dwelling itself — purpose-built or modified housing for people with extreme functional impairment or very high support needs. SIL and SDA are separate supports. Some people have both, but SDA does not automatically include SIL.
Who is eligible for SIL funding?
SIL is for people with high support needs who require help or supervision at home around the clock, including overnight. The NDIA decides whether it is suitable; an assessment alone is not approval. Check current SIL provider registration requirements and your own plan before agreeing to support.
Do you provide SIL accommodation in Melton?
Yes. Reliance Care and Support provides SIL accommodation services across Melbourne's west including Melton, Melton South, Deer Park, Truganina, Tarneit, Hoppers Crossing, and surrounding suburbs. Our SIL homes offer 24/7 support tailored to each resident's NDIS plan goals.
What support is included in SIL housing?
SIL funds agreed support or supervision with daily tasks at home, such as personal care, meals and household tasks. Rent, groceries and other everyday expenses are separate. Community access, transport and other supports should be checked separately against your plan rather than assumed to be included.
