Question:
A woman asks, saying: My husband passed away, and I did not know until seven months had passed. When do I start the waiting period, or has the waiting period already ended?

The waiting period begins from the moment the husband’s soul departs. If months have passed and she did not know until after those months, then she has already completed the waiting period. She has completed the waiting period, even if she did not know. Yes.
