Most people that are 10-12% will start dieting 4-5 months out, I think. If that gives you an idea... The reason is that if you cut that much weight in two months, you will get rid of a LOT of muscle mass.
If I were you and was going to compete in 8 months, then I would cut my body fat down to 10-12%. Then maintain that while adding mass until 4-5 months out, and then cut. So you don't have to worry about whether or not you'll be able to be in competition shape when the competition rolls around.
