Hi @Lisaj,


Whether you need to charge GST depends on your GST registration status. If you're registered for GST, you must charge GST on your support worker services to NDIS participants and include this amount in your invoicing to the plan managers. If you're not registered for GST, you can't charge GST on your invoices.


You're required to register for GST if your annual turnover is $75,000 or more. You can choose to register voluntarily if your turnover is below this threshold, but once registered, you'll need to charge GST on all your services regardless of your income level.


It's important to note that support and care services provided to NDIS participants may be GST-free in certain circumstances. The GST treatment of your services will depend on the specific nature of the services you provide and whether all requirements for GST-free treatment under the NDIS are met.


You should review the information on GST and the National Disability Insurance Scheme on the ATO website to understand when NDIS services can be GST-free. This will help you determine the correct GST treatment for your specific situation. If you need further clarification about your particular circumstances, you can contact us for guidance.
