I Applied in May 2022 for pip. I originally got refused due to time frame of my claim. I did get 8 points for daily living and  8 points for mobility but they said my condition will not last longer than 9 months that’s why they refused me, 

My condition is the same / worse in my opinion. I added more evidence for my tribunal but I haven’t had confirmation that they have received it. So does that mean they haven’t received it? 

I phoned pip and they said the current time in my area is 24 weeks from appealing we are now 29 weeks this week from the date I appealed and they said they have to wait until 5 weeks over to then make a claim does anyone know what this means? 

Thank you so much for taking your time out to answer my questions.

PIP will not know the timescales for a Tribunal hearing. For this you need to contact HMCTS (Trubunal) 
When you requested the Tribunal you should have received confirmation that they received it. 

Have you received the bundle yet?

I have no idea what they mean by this. You can start a new claim at anytime but doing so isn’t always the best idea while waiting for a Tribunal. Before doing this you should get some expert advice.
