Possession order issued (private rented property) help please with question

Hello I'm new to the site and any help would be great. I have been given a possession order from court - landlord issued section 21 using accelerated process as I am on assured tenancy agreement. I'm not objecting to going, however, I defended my case by asking for extra time as I will be homeless. I have managed to find a new property which is not easy as I have just lost my job and receiving benefits now, but I cannot move into property for another 3 weeks.
I have been told that I can apply to court using N244icon form asking for possession order to be suspended for a while. does anyone know if this is possible? I have been dealing with Shelter who have told me they cannot help as I filled in a defense (on their advice) and they cannot help defend again! so any help here would be great. I am panicking now as the possession order is for this week so I need to act urgently.
Thank you so much
Lily

Yes, you can apply for a suspension.

How long did the court give you? It can only be postponed for a maximum of 6 weeks from the date of the original order, and that's only in exceptional circumstances.0
