i was rebooked to the following YUL-IAD (Y) and IAD-CLT (J). How many PQM will that give me?

also... I opted to catch an earlier flight since I was so early to the airport.

also when I click email receipt I get two. One with
NONREF/0VALUAFTDPT/CHGFEE;YUL POS END
and other with
INVOL;YUL POS END

what does that mean? Will I get ORC declind because I got an earlier flight?

(still in the plane lol)

The INVOL endorsement is quite helpful in this scenario -- it means that the itinerary was involuntarily changed. I've never had an ORC request denied as long as the itinerary is properly flagged as INVOL.

My flight just got to the gate so I can elaborate more later if no one else chimes in :-)
