You do not report income on a k-1 until it is distributed. The 1041 has a place to mark if the money was undistributed. Money can sit in the estate for years while assets are sold. You do have a fiduciary duty to wrap things up as quickly as possible and get the money distributed.
The lawyer will want the final paperwork signed and will be dangling that distribution check to get things wrapped up.
