No body can give the exact timings..

It all depends how do you present your application... If your application is complete in terms of Citizenship Officer, than it is going to take 6-12 months..(current Pakistani applications overall common/general trend)

if it is complete AND if you don't get called in for an interview. visa offices tend to take their sweet time scheduling interviews, and that just delays things.

If you have your paper work done properly and there is no interview, then it should be less than one year.
