FWIW, the 1986 amnesty took a similarly long time, perhaps even longer. The 2007 bill was introduced in May and voted down at the end of June, but if it still had to go through it would be probably voted in August September. Then there would have to go the President's desk which would have been ceremonial, but it also takes time I think. I think that it took Reagan several weeks to sign the 1986 amnesty.
