Landscape tables with room to write. The Word version can be filled in on screen.
Scope and limitations
An editable template and practical record. It is not legal advice and does not by itself show that a provider meets the NDIS Practice Standards. Check it against the current Practice Standards, NDIS rules, your registration groups and your state or territory's laws, and adapt it to how your service really works.
Research basis
The NDIS Amendment (Securing the NDIS for Future Generations) Act 2026 shortens the time to claim from 2 years to 90 days from 1 December 2026, requires records of payment and receipt of NDIS funds to be kept for 7 years, adds offences for false information, destroying records and kickbacks, strengthens whistleblower protections, and expands mandatory registration for higher-risk supports from 1 July 2027.
