The average time from infection with HIV-1 to AIDS is usually said to be 8-10 years; one study puts it at 9.8 years in the populations they studied (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11873003). Different studies will give slightly different values, but 12 years is likely to be a bit longer than most studies would indicate.

The time from infection to AIDS differs from person to person, and shouldn't be taken as a reliable indication of when a person became infected.
