Supported Independent Living (SIL) Assessment

NDIS Supported Independent Living (SIL) Assessment Reports

Comprehensive SIL assessment reports with Roster of Care, support ratio justification and behaviour-of-concern analysis.

Why choose us

  • Independent (non-provider) SIL assessment for maximum credibility
  • Support ratio justification (1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 2:1, active overnight, sleepover)
  • Roster of Care aligned with assessed need
  • Behaviour-of-concern impact analysis
  • Co-tenant compatibility considerations

Supported Independent Living (SIL) is the largest single line item in many participants’ NDIS plans, often valued at $250,000 to $750,000+ per year. Because of the dollar value, SIL applications carry the highest evidence burden in the NDIS.

What is SIL?

Supported Independent Living is shared or individual 24/7 support funding for participants who require help with daily living tasks at home. SIL pays for support workers — not for rent or property — and is funded under Core — Assistance with Daily Life.

Why Independent SIL Assessments Matter

The NDIA increasingly scrutinises SIL applications where the assessment has been completed by the proposed provider. An independent assessor with no commercial interest in the outcome significantly strengthens the evidentiary value of the report.

What Our SIL Report Includes

  • Functional baseline across all eight NDIS domains
  • Detailed support task analysis (assist, supervise, prompt, observe)
  • Behaviour profile and behavioural-support overlay
  • Recommended Roster of Care in 30-minute increments
  • Recommended support ratio with clinical reasoning
  • Active overnight vs sleepover justification
  • Co-tenant compatibility and shared-support efficiencies
  • Goals and outcomes for the SIL arrangement

"Ryan and the team understood my son's autism in a way no previous assessor has. They captured the masking, the burnout cycles, the sensory side — things we have been trying to explain to NDIA for years. The funding outcome reflected that."

"We are based in a remote postcode and have struggled to access specialist assessors for years. The whole process was done by video — the clinician was warm, well prepared, and the report was as detailed as any in-person assessment I have ever seen."

"I needed an SDA assessment urgently to support a hospital discharge. The team turned it around in five business days, coordinated with the hospital social work team, and the application was approved without needing additional evidence."
