Maybe I dissapoint you but I think that not everybody can reach 2000 points level.
First year I progressed fast enough but then my rating increasment stopped.
Now my rating only fluctuated.
Typical rating progression pace?

Not for me at all, it really depends on the time, effort, dedication, and really the person themselves.
1200 by age 12.
1400 by age 50.
That's for me. If you are a WC candidate it's 2200 by age 12 and 2750 by age 24.

Yes. This is why Lev Alburt says his course, first two books only, is enough for 1800. It is enough. It is enough if you have the vision of a national champion. If you don't have the vision, you can know every ending and still miss five ply tactics, or even three ply tactics, and be 1400.

It all depends on your age. If you are under 20 then +100 elo progress every year is pretty common. But if you are an adult then everything is 10 times harder.

Me who got +2000 ELO in a year
If you got to 2000 in a year and you are 12, you could turn out to be very good. You clearly have talent.
From my starting rating of 973 on this day exactly one year before to 1904. I was only losing points when I first started playing chess and my lowest rating ever was 728. It took me one month to reach 1000. One month from that to reach 1200 and to drop to 1130 again but recover to 1300 pretty soon after that (this all happened in a month). I reached 1400 one month later. It took me two months from that to reach 1500 (longest so far to reach new milestone or increase rating for 100 points) and I did it at the end of April which was my fifth month of playing chess. One and a half month later I reached 1600. Next month I fell to 1550 to quickly rise up to 1700 in just two weeks. Another two long months before reaching 1800 and I think I struggled in 1700s the most out of all. But it wasn't smooth sail from that either. It took me two more montha to reach 1900 where I'm currently at, one year later after playing my first chess game. Im very happy with my progress so far.
1900 - one year | 1800 - 10 months | 1700 - 7 months | 1600 - six months | 1500 - five months | 1400 - 3 months | 1300 - two months | 1200 - one and a half month | 1000 - one month

*Update*
Cool to see this post is still active, 2.5 years after I originally posted it! An update on my progress in blitz, should anyone find it useful, starting out as an adult beginner in 2019:
625 = 3 weeks.
800 = 7 weeks.
1000 = 2.5 months.
1200 = 4 months. (Around the time I posted this very topic 2.5 years ago!)
1400 = 5 months.
1500 = 8 months.
1600 = 1 year, 1 month.
1700 = 1 year, 6 months.
1800 = 2 years, 1 month.
1900 = 2 years, 6 months.
2000 = 2 years, 9 months.
2100 = ???
My rating progression in Rapid was a little faster, as the rating's are a little bit inflated compared to blitz I find. Anyway, as evident from all of the comments, everyone will progress at different rates! The biggest factor being (in my opinion) how much time you're actually able to invest in that improvement!

Idk you’re never really gonna get a good answer posting here because the people who respond are stroking their own egos I’m like a 650 and better than 40 percent of users so my guess would be real slow

I've never seen a real beginner progress that fast. By real beginner I mean they're not an expert at Shogi or something, and e.g. on January they're learning how the pieces move... by April maybe they're 1000, maybe not.
(Unless we're talking about 1300 in chess.com daily or something)
That's how long it took me and it seems pretty consistent with people I've known and/or taught. Several people in this thread agree.
Honestly, I could probably teach someone everything they need to know to reach 1300 in a few hours. A few basic checkmates and tactics and the rest is just learning how not to screw up too bad.
I've known beginners who became interested. They usually watch some videos, solve some tactics, play online. I knew a few who went to some OTB tournaments. They're maybe 1000 after 3 months.
Of course if they're not a real beginner, then it's different.
I agree it doesn't take much knowledge. It's mostly building habits necessary to not give away pieces.
Hey i mean this is an old post but it's early Jan 2022 right now, I played my first ever game ( apart from one or two at age 10) in August 2021. I'm rated 1400 on Lichess and can win in the >1700 tournaments more often than not. On chess.com right now my rating is 1150 and honestly if I didnt resign as many games as I do then it would probably be higher now, This is on rapid btw, I think all it takes to get better is consistent practice and lots of it. TBH I don't think there is a limit to how fast someone can progress, it's just about how much they want to put in and then if they're willing to learn the theory (working on it). This especially goes for ratings <1500 or so, we aren't really that good.
did a test in 3 months got 1485 rating

I myself achieved 1000 rating after about 3-5 months of play, now just over a year of play I am about 1550. Only about 2 months ago I started studying (puzzles, openings, endgames, etc.) and in the past 30 days I have gained almost 300 rating. Hope this helps a bit 
921 to 1667 4 months and 2 days.

It depends on the person about rating progress. I would just focus on yourself and don't compare yourself with others.
For me, it took me two years to get to 1500. Now I am about 1850 USCF.
I believe that some chess prodigies can get to 2000 in less than two years of playing.
