It's been over 2 months since the paternity test..

They told me we'd have the results back in 6 weeks. I haven't heard anything yet. How long should I wait before calling?

    If you are worried about it, then call. But if its something you already know the answer to then just wait. Are you waiting on CS or something? I am not familiar with your back story

    I wish I could remember how long mine took. I want to say it was more than 6 weeks. And we had another court date coming up so my caseworker was able to call and get results. But I can't really remember

    When we had to have it done they told me it would take 2-4 weeks to come back and then a judge had to sign off on them.

    The actual results took 3 weeks to come back and then the case manager had them sitting on her desk and didn't send them to a judge until I called. It took another 3 weeks after the judge got them for me to receive notification that they were signed and a child support conference was scheduled.

    I would call because it might be something like mine, sitting on a desk or waiting on a judge.

    If they said 6 weeks and it's been longer than that, I would call. It won't hurt to call, the worst they can say is that you have to wait. But like pp said, it could be a matter of it sitting on someone's desk waiting to be handled.

    Yes, I filed the paperwork for child support and since EX didn't respond within 30 days of being served we got ordered to do a paternity test. I already know what the results are going to be....there's no way possible he's not the BD but I just hate waiting. After this step we have to go to mediation to try to come to an agreement for custody, visitation, child support etc. If we can't, then a judge will decide. That's the part I'm actually scared about.
