سلام دوستان
این جواب یکی از اساتیدیه که باهاشون مکاتبه کردم. اینو میدونم که در حال حاضر پوزیشن نداره ولی میخوام بدونم دقیقا منظورش از قسمت اول جوابش چیه. ممنون میشم کمک کنید.

I would know for several months whether or not I will have funding to accept any new graduate students, so I can't offer you a position at this time.
I agree with ghlobe that he/she probably missed "not" after would in the first part of his/her response. This interpretation makes more sense because of the last two words in his/her response "at this time". However, whatever you interpret, as you mentioned, he/she cannot offer you any position now.

You can reply and say thanks for reply, and if you think you are going to wait until next spring/fall that he/she may have new funding or may not, then you can start talking about technical issues if your research areas are match well.
It is up to you to continue with him/her or not
Good Luck
