What NDIS support budgets are
There are 4 different kinds of NDIS support budgets you can have in your plan. Together, these support budgets make up your plan.
Because every NDIS plan is individual, if you don’t need one of these support budgets, you won’t have any funding against it in your plan.
The 4 support budgets are:
- core supports
- capacity building supports
- capital supports
- recurring supports.

They help you keep track of your budget
You’ll have different amounts of funding in each support budget. This way, you’ll be able to clearly see what you have spent and how much money you have left.
