Does this camera have a auto timer - Canon PowerShot A560 Digital Camera

Yes, but not in the Auto mode, where the camera decides whether or not it needs the flash. Switch to the P mode, which works like Auto except you have control over the flash, exposure, and other factors. See pages 26 and 42 of this manual.

Does the auto exposure go down to 30 secs? If you are getting 30 secs on B mode then the self timer will not work. Set the camera to full auto and then from the menu select self timer, you should have 2 options 2 sec and 10 sec. Then press the shutter

after camera is turned to auto and the timer has counted down it turns off.

Assuming you haven't changed the auto-off timers, yes. The default time-out for image review is 4 seconds.

The auto-off timer settings are in the Setup menu. Press the MENU button, select the wrench icon, and scroll down.

go to auto click or auto timer option of your camera option menu and set the timer for auto click
