The Exit of a Woman in Iddah for an Urgent Matter

Question
A woman in iddah wants to go to the bank to complete her deceased husband's salary procedures. Is there any issue with her going out?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: If she is compelled and in need of the matter and it cannot be postponed, it is permissible for her to go out; because it is a valid excuse, and God knows best.
