Yes, but your local law enforcement agency may have to take your report, then turn it over to the branch of military the missing person is in. And if someone you know is missing, you need to report it ASAP.

There is no law that REQUIRES a parent to file a missing person report - especially if the parent knows where the 17 year old is.

When can you file a missing person report?
At anytime after the individual goes missing - after a "reasonable" time has passed OR dependent upon the circumstances. The catch is the "reasonable time" part. If it is a young juvenile - action will be taken almost immediately. For a teenager - a little longer. For an adult (not under suspicious circumstances) - maybe longer still. ALSO - you must have the legal "standing" to report someone missing - a family member or a person in a close personal relationship, for instance. Most people do not reailize that it is not a crime to be a "missing" person. A legally competent adult can decide to disappear with no notice whatsoever to anyone and they have every legal right to do so. Occasionally the police will locate a long-lost missing person but all they can legally do is report back to the person that originally reported them missing is that they have been located and they are okay. Legally they cannot even disclose where it is they were 'found.'
How long must you wait before you can file a missing persons report in Wisconsin?
There is no set time, but before you call the police and file a missing persons report you have to make sure that they really are missing. Phone around friends to trace their last movements, call school/work/places where they were last, have a thorough look before you phone the police.Another View: For a non-threatened and non-impaired adult - 24 hours is the "customary" amount of time law enforcement will let lapse before actually filing a report and looking into the circumstances.For a child - a 'threatened' adult - or someone missing under clearly suspicious circumstances, report it immediately.Little known fact: (in the US) It is not against the lawto be a "missing" person. An adult in control of their faculties, and not under duress, has the right to go wherever they choose, take up residence anywhere they like, and do whatever they (lawfully) choose to do, without interference from the authorities. Even when located, if they choose NOT to have law enforcement disclose their location and advise anyone of their whereabouts this request must be honored. Law enforcement can advise the person who reported the individual missing, that they have been found and are safe, but they may not disclose their whereabouts.
