Here's a link to the perfect place for questions like this. :)

And the answer is roughly 3 years have passed since the start of AGoT.

A Song of Ice and Fire

298 AC The events of A Song of Ice and Fire begin. (The Prologue of A Game of Thrones takes place in 297 AC, and quite possibly the first few Daenerys chapters as well.)

In the north, after thousands of years without encounter, the Others reappear in an attack on rangers from the Night's Watch and a group of free folk.

The Hand of the King, Jon Arryn, is poisoned after learning that Robert I Baratheon's heirs to the Iron Throneare bastards.

Following the death of Robert, the Seven Kingdoms are engulfed in the War of the Five Kings, a central conflict that spans through all five published books.

299 AC Beyond the Wall: With the disturbing news of a conflict beyond the Wall, the Night's Watch leaves in force on a great ranging into the far north.

In Essos: After having hatched three dragon eggs, bringing dragons back to the world once again, Daenerys Targaryen conquers the great cities of Slaver's Bay, setting their slaves free and throwing the region into chaos.

300 AC In Westeros: After a decade-long summer and brief autumn, winter finally engulfs Westeros. The long-believed-dead Prince Aegon Targaryen starts his invasion of Westeros.

In Essos: Daenerys Targaryen rules Meereen as its queen.
