Hello,
In the window period is three and 12 weeks. some rare cases, some people can take as long as six months to develop antibodies.
During this time test will be Negative.
NAT looks for virus you have to take early and see.
So wait for window period.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
