beneficiary's share of grandmothers estate

[ryan111]

I live in Utah, My grandmother passed-away in October of 2008, she lived in Wisconsin, I'm one of the beneficiary's listed in her estate, just recently I received a partial payment from her attorney...My question is when can I expect the final payment owed to me? is there a time-line that it has to be paid to me by? I have also filed the K-1 form that was sent me if this has anything to do with final payment? any answers or advice would be appreciated..

That is a question that you will have to ask of the executor of the estate and/or the attorney for the estate.

Wisconsin does make a presumption that a probate estate should be wrapped up within 12 months. And my understanding that the courts in WI keep a pretty close eye on how long probate is open.
