If I'm not mistaken, I believe this is how it works:

A person can receive full ordination if they are 20 years old or greater. Under than 20 then they have to be a novice until they reach age 20. Anyone 20 or older could get full ordination right away, following the procedures for ordination, unless the specific temple or monastery has a rule that everyone is a novice in training first (regardless of age). That would be up to the specific monastery what their policy is.

It depends on the monastery. I believe in Sri Lankan traditions they generally require some kind of probation. Whereas in most Thai traditions there is no probation period or at least a relatively short one. Based on the photo it looks like he may be in a Thai monastery. Strictly speaking from a vinaya standpoint you can ordain fully as a bhikkhu as long as you are 20 years of age and meet the requirements (are human, a man, free from debt, not a pandika, etc.)
