There is no set time for reporting a sexual assault. The police will begin by taking a statement from you and will then start to collect evidence. If there is enough evidence, the police will lay charges. It is important for any survivor to understand that even if the police do not lay charges, it does not mean they do not believe you. Rather, there may not be enough evidence to proceed within criminal court.
