I think it is, to a large extent, out of the hands of the amd64 porters...
It is up to the debian ftp masters, and various powers that be.. I think they (the amd64 crew) are all sick of wondering about it themselves... I am sure they will put it on this list when more info becomes available.
(btw, i am not involved with the amd64 team, but have followed this list)

Is there any timeline for amd64 port becoming official. I have a dual opteron RAID server which is currently running gentoo. I want to move to debian.

You can install debian form amd64 right now. You can read this [1] to learn how to do it. Last I heard about it, 97% of the debian official packages where ported to amd64, and we have regular update, te same as the official debian sid distro.

The only issue being that its a production server and I dont want to run an unofficial distribution on it.
