How to deal with a project / action that is due at some point in the future

Thank you for that much appreciated

How far into the future do you set these reminders to start projects?

Do you ever add them to your diary to start the project at a certain date or just in omnifocus?

I think my furthest out items are to renew my driver's license and my passport, both several years away. I just have them scheduled as a project with a future start date, not in my diary (calendar in the US).
