Income tax due until date of death

My mother died in April this year. All her income was via PAYE through modest pensions plus interest on bank accounts. I am the estate Executor. I received a P1001 letter from HMRC in May saying that you would write to me within 8 weeks informing me whether any tax was due on income to date of death. I noted that I would only be contacted if too much or too little tax has been paid. I am fairly sure some tax payment will be due though I don’t have all her pension/tax information. Nine weeks have passed, and I have not received any correspondence. I do not want to distribute the estate assets just in case HMRC is running late, or there has been a problem with the post – which has affected us several times recently. Is it possible to confirm when HMRC is likely to advise on tax until date of death is payable? That would be a great help.
