Written by James, creator of Bluetail·Published 8 October 2026

Helping a participant understand and use their plan, and connect with supports. Here's what group 0106 covers, who registers for it, the 22 support items funded under it, the groups it's often confused with, and the audit it needs.

What 0106 covers

Assistance in coordinating or managing life stages, transitions and supports. In practice this is mainly support coordination (Level 1 support connection and Level 2 coordination of supports) and psychosocial recovery coaching, along with life transition planning, help with accommodation and tenancy obligations, and exploring and designing individualised living options.

The NDIS Support Catalogue 2026-27 lists 22 support items under 0106, funded from Support Coordination and Psychosocial Recovery Coaches, Improved Living Arrangements, Increased Social and Community Participation, Finding and Keeping a Job, Improved Daily Living Skills, Assistance with Daily Life, Home and Living budgets. Leaving out the time-of-day, rate-level and claim-type variants, the supports are:

• Individualised Living Options - Exploration and Design
• Support Coordination Level 1: Support Connection
• Support Coordination Level 2: Coordination of Supports
• Psychosocial Recovery Coaching
• Assistance With Accommodation And Tenancy Obligations
• Life Transition Planning Incl. Mentoring Peer-Support And Indiv Skill Develop
• Assistance With Decision Making Daily Planning and Budgeting

Who registers for 0106

Support coordinators, psychosocial recovery coaches and organisations that help participants through major life changes.

Mandatory registration for support coordination has been paused, so registering for 0106 is currently a choice rather than a requirement for plan-managed and self-managed participants.

Groups 0106 is often confused with

• 0132 Specialised support coordination is Level 3 specialist support coordination, for participants in more complex situations.
• 0127 Management of funding for supports in participant plans is plan management: paying invoices and tracking the budget, not coordinating supports.

Audit: verification or certification?

0106 is a certification group. You are audited against the NDIS Practice Standards Core Module, in two stages, with an onsite visit, interviews with workers and participants, and a mid-term audit. Your audit type is set by the highest of your groups, so registering for 0106 makes your whole registration a certification audit. See verification vs certification audits, how the NDIS audit works and what a certification audit costs.

Groups often registered alongside 0106

• 0132 Specialised support coordination (certification)
• 0117 Development of daily living and life skills (certification)

Only register for the groups you actually deliver: every extra group adds to what the auditor checks. Our guide to choosing your NDIS registration groups walks through it.

Documents you need for 0106

A certification audit checks your policies, procedures and records against the Core Module: participant rights, governance and operational management, how you deliver supports, and the environment you deliver them in. The auditor then looks for evidence you follow them, through your records and interviews.
