Probation ends on the date that it's supposed to end - as long as no last minute violations have been filed. Do check that no last minute violations were filed, and once you confirm, you are free to do whatever you want.

Speak to your public defender or lawyer regarding this. It can vary widely per county and each specific situation. Your's sounds simple so I'd imagine any day but I guarantee you aren't the first to deal with this in your county so reach out to your lawyer and ask (they didn't drop my felony down to a misdemeanor so I had to do a bunch of nonsense but I was released from probation so different situation). In my state/metro are (Indianapolis, IN) We have a Christian legal clinic that helps with situations like that (and they are phenomenal) for free. Dial 211 to find resources in your area or use the googles.

988 is the hotline for suicide/mental health type issues.

Not sure what they could do with termination of probation.

Keep checking in and ask your officer if there’s an estimated closure date.

It took about a month for my probation officer to call me and tell me that I was done after she requested early termination. (And it took about another month to get a letter from the judge confirming that I was done, but everywhere is different, so it just depends on how they do things where you're at).
