I had the same question. Having done it, I can confirm that the renewal adds on the 3 years; you don't lose any time by renewing early. So, in my case, I certified in 2009 and my PDU cycle would expire in 2012 (+3 years). I renewed in 2010, and my new PDU cycle expiration date is now 2015. Before renewing, I confirmed that on the phone with PMI.org, and after renewing, it does show correctly when I log in at PMI.org. Hi Scott – Great question! I had the same question.
