PIp tribunal appeal was created by Judey
I didn't complete me original form as well as I could have as I did it on the basis of not receiving any help and just managing. How cam I submit more detailed and accurate information to the appeal (which I need to do asap) to have it accepted and not rejected as new info?

Hi Jacee
Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explains where everything is
Welcome to Benefits and Work
I haven't got a clear picture of your situation from your post.
After you applied for PIP - did you get any award, or were you refused? Did you put in a copy of your assessment report?
The next stage is to put in for an MR -(Mandatory Reconsideration) - have you done this? If you haven't then you have to do one before you can put in an appeal. You normally have to put it in within a month of the decision letter, or you can put in a late MR with the reason why you didn't do it in the normal time frame and you can send in additional information that covers the time of your claim.
If you did put in an MR and you're not happy with the decision - it's the appeal stage.
Appeals go to the Tribunals Service and taking at least 45 weeks to be heard - some longer. If you are at this stage, you can send in as much relevant information that you want - though it has to be information that covered the time of your claim.
If you already have an award - at any time you can submit a change of circumstances and submit new information and you will automatically be reassessed.
I'm not sure what position you're currently in. Do come back and ask further questions and we will try to help.
