One epoch in Cardano is around 5 days long.
​
Depending on when you started the delegation in the current epoch, you will receive your first rewards between 15-20 days. After that, you will then receive them every epoch for your delegation earnings two epochs retrospectively.

Lets say that you delegate in the current epoch E0:
​
E0: Delegation transaction made (up to approx. 5 days)
E1: Snapshot taken and the network registers the delegation request (approx. 5 days)
E2: Validating is in progress and rewards are being earned (approx. 5 days)

E3: Rewards are calculated (approx. 5 days)
​
Rewards are paid out in epoch 4 for rewards earned in epoch 2
