Help me understand rights in this situation in general terms — not legal advice.

Situation: [details]
Country/region: [England / Scotland / Wales / NI / other]
What I want to know: [details]
What I've already been told: [optional]

Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. General points that often apply, clearly marked as general.
2. Official or reputable places to check for my topic (Citizens Advice or GOV.UK matching pages — use housing pages only if this is about housing; otherwise the matching topic page, e.g. family, work/Acas, consumer).
3. Questions to ask an adviser.
4. What not to do meanwhile (deadlines, deleting evidence).

This is not legal advice. Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts, steps or official URLs you're not sure of. UK English.

Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.

A short example

Fill the blanks, then paste. details: a short note you already have. England / Scotland / Wales / NI / other: a short note you already have. Leave the rest of the prompt as written.
