What is MTA?

Medium Term Accommodation (MTA)

Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) is somewhere you can live whilst waiting for your confirmed long-term housing solution. The NDIS usually funds MTA as a one-off support, for stays of up to three months (90 days).

How does NDIS fund MTA?

MTA is funded under Core Supports in your NDIS plan.

Am I eligible for funding for MTA?

Eligibility for funding is assessed by the NDIS on a case-by-case basis and will be included in your plan if it is considered a reasonable and necessary support that meets your needs and will help you achieve your goals and is also dependent on your situation, plan objectives and aspirations.
