What is the incubation period for TB? Is it possible that it could take up to 2 yrs without symptoms?

The incubation period varies from 2 weeks to several decades so, yes, it is possible that it could take up to 2 years (and far longer) without symptoms. If you were unknowingly exposed, it could conceivably be 30 years before you'd be aware of it.
