Ideally, you should be able to close the estate within 13 months of the decedent's death. However, depending on the size and complexity of the estate, it may take longer.

A creditor against an estate files a claim by providing the personal representative of the estate with written notice. This can be done by submitting a completed Notice of Claim form with the court register. The filing of a claim preserves the creditor's right to collect from the estate.
Creditors must file claims within the earlier of (a) six months of the date of death, or (b) two months after actual notice is mailed to the creditor. Upon the expiration of the six-month period, the personal representative must pay all legitimate claims against the estate.
(1) A claimant may make a claim against the estate, within the time allowed for presenting claims, (A) by serving it on the personal representative, (B) by filing it with the register and serving a copy on the personal representative, or (C) by filing suit.
