The time is arbitrary, depending on severity of deficiency of vitB12, associated deficiency of folic acid(this may be less relevant). 4 months to 1yr.

Exact period is not mentioned but it may be a few months while body stores are exhausted and symptoms appear. See here- http://www.webmd.com/diet/vitamin-b12-deficiency-symptoms-causes Good luck!
