3 Understand and record housing information

3.1 Understand housing information

Completing the Housing questions in the Personal and Environmental Circumstances case helps us understand the person’s situation.

Plan developers, Housing Assessors, or the Housing Panel can use this information to determine the right home and living supports to help the person pursue their goals.

We can ask for this information from the person, their authorised representative, or their allied health professional.

3.2 Record responses to the Personal and Environmental

Circumstances case

Ask the person the Housing questions in the Personal and Environmental Circumstances case and record their answer.

Note: Don’t read the response options to the person out loud. Instead listen carefully to their answers. You may need to select the most appropriate response for each question. Explain to the person we need the right information before we make an eligibility decision.

You must record a response for each mandatory field marked with an asterisk. Then select Next to continue.

Note: The PEC case Steps and questions are dynamic and may change. This will depend on the person’s situation and age, as well as the response options selected for some questions.
