A license can be renewed no sooner than 90 days before the expiration of the license. License changes can be done anytime.
The NCVEC Form 605 does not have a space for obtaining a duplicate license, but you can simply write 'Duplicate' on the form and it will be processed.

If you file via ARRL, the process may take only a few days in order to change or renew your license, once ARRL receives it. A new hardcopy license will arrive by mail from FCC within a couple of weeks. If you have any questions, contact the ARRL VEC by phone: 1-860-594-0300 or e-mail: vec@arrl.org .
