Looking at some published examples of Affliction (Advantage):

Diminuation (p. P143), a Shrinking affliction, causes the subject to shrink over a period of 6 seconds.
Frog (p. P143), an Alternate Form affliction, doesn't mention a transformation time.
Matter Transmission (p. P147), a Warp affliction, includes a penalty for no preparation time.
Body of Wood (Sorcery, p. 23), an Alternate Form affliction, doesn't mention a transformation time when cast as a spell, but does when used as the basis for a magic item.
