The NDIS Commission has announced significant regulatory changes for providers delivering Supported Independent Living (SIL), effective from 1 July 2026. 🏡
Under the new requirements:
• All providers delivering SIL will be required to be registered to provide SIL.
• A new registration group (0138) has been created specifically for SIL services.
• New SIL Practice Standards will apply from 1 July 2026.
• Existing SIL providers will be assessed against the new standards during their next midterm audit or recertification audit.
• Providers delivering SIL without registration after the transition period may face significant regulatory penalties.
The new SIL Practice Standards place a strong focus on participant rights, participant choice, safeguarding, service quality, governance, and the delivery of supports within a participant’s home environment.
