SIL provider registration has specific transition arrangements that matter when you review a home and living provider. This guide links the relevant October deadline with official pathway and register information, while distinguishing SIL from other everyday support services.

Supported independent living, often called SIL, has specific registration requirements. The October transition deadline is an important update for people reviewing their home and living arrangements. It is also a reminder to check exactly which service a provider is proposing.

SIL provider registration: transition dates

The NDIS Commission’s pathway for existing unregistered SIL providers says transition arrangements and obligations began from 1 July 2026. Providers following that pathway could continue delivering SIL while their application was assessed if they submitted the required registration application by the October deadline.

The Commission’s Provider Register explains that providers who applied before 1 October 2026 may continue under transitional arrangements until a registration decision is made. The exact pathway and application status matter. An application in progress should not be confused with completed registration.

SIL is a specific support arrangement

The Commission distinguishes a provider-managed package of home and living support for people with higher support needs from arrangements involving only a few support hours or a participant managing their own workers. Use the current definition and transition guidance when checking your situation.

Questions for a provider conversation

  • What is the exact support being proposed?
  • Is it SIL, or a different everyday support service?
  • What registration status and pathway apply?
  • Where can the current status be checked?
  • Who will explain any change to the arrangements?

Ask for clear information you can return to later. You can involve someone you trust in the discussion and request an explanation of unfamiliar terms. A service label on a website is a starting point for questions, rather than a substitute for confirming the arrangements.

Check the official register

Use the Commission’s official Provider Register and relevant transition guidance. If you cannot interpret the status shown or need to know what it means for a particular arrangement, ask the Commission or NDIA through their official contact channels. Do not rely on an old screenshot as confirmation of a provider’s current position.

Where Holistic Health Support fits

Holistic Health Support describes in-home care, personal care and daily living assistance as everyday disability support services. Those descriptions do not establish that SIL is offered or that a particular SIL registration pathway applies.

If you are looking for the everyday assistance described on our site, contact our team to clarify the service requested, location and availability. Our provider selection guide gives you further questions about practical fit.

SIL provider registration: common questions

Where can I check SIL provider registration information?

Use the Commission’s official registration pathways and Provider Register linked below. Check the status relevant to the exact service being proposed. If the information or transition position is unclear, ask the Commission through its official channels rather than relying on an old screenshot or a general service description.

What should I ask when a provider uses the term SIL?

Ask which support arrangement is being proposed, how it relates to your needs and what registration status or transition pathway applies. Request information you can return to later and clarify unfamiliar terms. The exact service and current provider status are more useful than assumptions based on a label.

Does the Holistic Health Support website establish a SIL service?

The website describes personal care, daily living assistance, community support, in-home care and travel assistance. Those descriptions do not establish that SIL is offered. Contact the team to clarify the everyday assistance you want to discuss, while using the Commission’s guidance for questions about SIL registration.
