The will is entered into probate usually within the first 30 days after death, sometimes much sooner. From there, it all depends on a lot of factors. If there is no contest (for example, if all the property is left to one person, with no one to argue the fact), then you need approximately 90 days for creditors to make their claims. This includes the final medical expenses, the burial or cremation costs, and any outstanding credit cards and so on. If there's nothing to make any of this difficult, you can have distribution (not only money, but title to any property) in six months or less.
However, if the will is really that clear, you can usually get an advance against your expectations from the executor. And of course, the primary beneficiary is often the executor as well, as in the death of a spouse.
If there is a contest, as for example if someone claims an outstanding debt the executor things is fraudulent, or if someone says there was undue influence on the testator, or that the testator was not of sound mind, it can take literally years. Read Dickens "Bleak House" for the extreme, although you must keep in mind that Dickens exaggerated for the sake of making a point.

18 months is indeed a critical point in a relationship - after that it's goodbye or for keeps (at least for quite a while). You find out whether the partner is right (or "whether it is love") exactly when the spark has stopped. If the engine keeps humming, that's it... You will know it when you feel it. Please don't despair if your first few tries have not ended in long-term bliss. It is not easy to find the right partner, but it is better to break up in time than to enter into marriage or another long-term relationship with the wrong person. Best of luck to you!

After someone dies, they're no longer capable of EXECUTING a will. Depending on circumstances, an executor will do his/her job. If you've been mentioned in the will, you'll be contacted in due time.

Just enough time to hide the gun and dispose of other evidence. I think.....
