On 15th december 2017 I instructed Kraken to transfer 0.044 Bitcoins to my wallet,  "Bitcoin Address: 1KmQfQKXemUtDkJt9hN6w8Si984CM7JUTb. Kraken confirmed the transaction on 15th december 2017 12.32 12 with "Withdrawal AGB2YAL-S7IMJZ-DPBI6K". Today my wallet tells me "Requests date 2017-12-15 11.27, amount 0.0440 Status expired, Balance 0.
additional info: web address Bitcoin block explorer tells me
           Bitcoin Address 1KmQfQKXemUtDkJt9hN6w8Si984CM7JUTb
           Received: 0.044 BTC (1 ins) first: 2017-12-15 12:50:53 last: 2017-12-15 12:50:53
please tell me how I will get my Bitcoins into my wallet.

Today my wallet tells me "Requests date 2017-12-15 11.27, amount 0.0440 Status expired, Balance 0.
The transaction was confirmed a month ago, address 1KmQfQKXemUtDkJt9hN6w8Si984CM7JUTb contains 0.044 BTC.
Confirmed Bitcoin transactions don't expire. That only leaves your wallet as a possible problem. Let's start with the obvious: which wallet do you use?

That explains your problem: Electron Cash is NOT a Bitcoin wallet, it's a Bitcoin Cash wallet.

You can fix this in several ways, I recommend you download Electrum.
In Electron Cash, export the private key for 1KmQfQKXemUtDkJt9hN6w8Si984CM7JUTb. DO NOT show the private key to anybody!
Install Electrum, create a new wallet > Standard wallet > Use public or private keys > enter your private key into Electrum.

After this, your 0.044 BTC should show up in your Electrum wallet again.

Note that you got lucky: if you mess up Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash when depositing to an exchange, it's very likely you'll lose your money. Be careful not to mix up different chains again!
