Thank you IAC! You guys have been very helpful and I appreciate the services I receive from you guys👌
I heard about IAC from a friend who was happy with the services provided. So I called them up, talked to the team and since then, IAC have been very helpful for my son’s NDIS plan needs. Our NDIS support worker at IAC assisted me through the plan review and helped me gather the right evidence. Everything was completed in a timely manner. Now, my son’s NDIS plan includes services and the therapies that he requires. I feel satisfied and pleased that my son can finally access what he needs now, and I appreciate IAC.
Honestly best company, all I see is happy participant and best services. The directors are in contact with support workers all the time, day and night, their passion is noticeable about NDIS, you will not have seconds doubts coming into this company.
