Mine expires this fall.
How early should the DPS website let me renew?

I believe its 6 months from the expiration date

Six months is the standard. Even if you don't receive a notification at the six-month date, you can initiate a renewal at that time. Mine expires late this year, so I'll be watching the calendar, as well, to assure to interruption...even though I also maintain a another state's reciprocal license.

I received a letter about 8 months out I think, then the site didn't give me the option to Rene until about 5 months out. I renewed last November, took about 7 work days to receive.. About 10 days over all.

I am just over 6 months out.
The DPS web site doesn't allow me to renew, yet.

Mine renews in late August. The first of March, I got a notice and renewed on the web site. Three weeks later, new plastic.

When I was up for renewal last time, somewhere I read 180 days ahead of expiration. Darned if I can find that now, but I haunted the DPS website until it let me start renewal, and that was just past the 180 day point.

6 months minus 4 days before my birthday. (176 days)

I've been checking the Texas.gov web site daily

You'll get a letter in the mail about a week or so inside the 6 month window. Well, I did.
