Each season is probably about a week (subjective time) tops (except maybe season 1, which probably was a few months subjective time).

and with the 1 year jump in the middle of season three, that really helped a little regarding Henry's character age versus Jared's actual age. But from the time of the current curse (Snow's Curse) to the end of White Out, there has probably not been more than 2 weeks, and it may actually only be about 1 week. (When Emma says she is in constant crisis mode, she's not kidding.) And in the meantiime, Jared has aged probably at least 6 months (and he's already a couple of years off). so they're going to have to slip some sort of time jump in there, or pretty soon his character is going to not be even remotely believable. It's already starting to get there now.
