What is Medium Term Accommodation (MTA)

Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) is a type of supported accommodation for individuals with a disability. MTA is designed to provide NDIS participants with a safe, appropriate temporary housing solution while they wait for their more permanent house to be ready.

MTA Funding

How does the NDIS fund MTA?

Medium Term Accommodation (MTA) is funded under Core Supports in your NDIS plan. In order for the NDIS to fund this type of support, they require evidence that you have a home to move into once the MTA funding has concluded.

MTA funding only covers the cost of the accommodation which means you will still be require to pay for your day to day living costs such as groceries, food, utility bills etc.

How do I qualify for MTA funding?

The NDIS needs to deem MTA funding as reasonable and necessary for a person depending on their situation such as:

  • Leaving the hospital, aged care or a custodial setting
  • No longer having access to supports or a home to live in
  • Waiting for your permanent home to be ready or a vacancy in a place where you want to live
