There is a very long queue for 103 - you're looking at somewhere between
10 and 20 years if you apply now.
143 visa applications typically take 12 months or so. The difference
for Contributory Parent is that there are not only more visas, but fewer
applications (because of the higher fees involved).
The visa year runs from 1 July to 30 June.
