I know the answer to that one because I did it last week...You cannot change your renewal date. If the date you have doesn't work for you, you have
to go to the office in person with a letter requesting the cancellation of your fm3 and stating why. They take your card and give you the paper fmm so
that you can leave the country. Then about 2 weeks before a date that is suitable to you, you go through the process of applying for an fm3 for the
first time, providing the proof of foreign income/means of support and the whole shebang. So, if you are logging years on your fm3 in order to get
the fm2, you better stick with the date you have...

Wish I could give a reference to this, but....well, just recently, someone here said they did it. Changed the date.
Again....it's office to office with a bunch of people you don't dare argue with.
Maybe someone will recall more of what I remember.

As has been said time and again. It depends on the office.

Not true anymore. This is an excerpt from a post near the beginning of this thread:
The FM2 is your new immigration document with no connection to your existing FM3. You do not have to wait for your FM3 to come up for renewal. You can
apply for the FM2 at any time. You don't even need to have an FM3 first, you can go straight from an FMM.
