Question

I was name as a beneficiary in a trust along with several other individuals. I received notification via mail from an attorney (not the one that drew up the Trust) stating that the specified amount would be sent out immediately. If I requested an accounting, it would hold up the distribution up to 180 days. I did not request an accounting of the Executor and have not received the distribution. We are now approaching 180+ days.

When should I expect the distribution? The Executor just says that "no distribution has been made." What might the hold up be?

Answer

My guess is another beneficiary requested an accounting.

Answer

It should not normally take that long.
