I renewed mine shortly after my birthday last year because it was going to expire on my birthday this year. The new card expires on my birthday in 2022, 5+ years from now.

No, less than 5 years from now. The new card expires exactly 5 years from the expiration date of the old card, which was in Dec 2016. I received my new card a few weeks after the old one expired. However I've been told you are permitted to use your old card when expired so long as your renewal is in progress. I'm not sure if that's true since I never traveled on my old Nexus card while it was expired.

My NEXUS expiration is in December 2017.
Now I already see the renewal tab when I checked my GOES account.
I wonder if I can already apply for NEXUS renewal way in advance...
I thought I could apply for the renewal online in September this year the earliest

When will my membership expire and how soon can I renew my membership?

The expiration date for your program membership is displayed on your GOES home page after you login to GOES. You may renew your membership one year prior to your membership expiration date or anytime after your membership has expired.

I would time your appointment according to your birth date. I found it interesting that our Nexus is valid for almost 6 years. DW and my birth dates are in Sept and Aug. Our Nexus is valid through our birthday 2022. So if your birthday is coming up, wait to schedule your appointment until after your birthday. I suspect they don't want to make your Nexus valid for less than five years after first approval, so timing can be useful.
But now, especially since I don't have any travel planned (except to the Nexus office of my choice since I'm in TPA), then I should let it expire and renew when it's convenient for me.

I hadn't considered birthday as far as renewal. Mine expires on my birthday in 2 weeks. I applied for renewal 6 weeks ago, was getting antsy since I thought I wanted to renew before my birthday.
But now, especially since I don't have any travel planned (except to the Nexus office of my choice since I'm in TPA), then I should let it expire and renew when it's convenient for me.

From the GOES FAQ (not logged in):
When will my membership expire and how soon can I renew my membership?
When will my membership expire and how soon can I renew my membership?
It says
"CBP and CBSA are asking the NEXUS members begin their application renewal 90 days prior to their membership expiration date."
So which one is correct 1 year or 90 days

You can use your current NEXUS until it expires. Once your renewal has final approval, then you can use your NEXUS until next expiration date. If your NEXUS expires before you have renewal final approval, then you cannot use your current NEXUS.

I hope I don't need to fly to Canada just for an interview...
I renewed my passport way before my passport expiration date last year. Of course I updated my passport information at GOES when I received my new passport, but I haven't updated my passport information with Canada yet.
If that makes me fly to Canada for the renewal, probably it's a good idea to call the NEXUS Canadian processing center and update my passport information?
I searched but still I'm not 100% sure if I still need to update my passport information with Canada or GOES update is enough...
I wonder if anyone got an approval without interview even he/she didn't update passport information with Canada in case they had to get a new passport before the renewal...

Yup. Haven't looked at this thread, but I'm at 6 weeks as of yesterday, for a renewal. Still pending. Last time I think it took like 4 or 5 weeks. I think if I'm counting correctly, yesterday was 31 business days. Anyone know if renewal times are typically the same as new application times? Mine doesn't actually expire until August, but thought it would be good to do the renewal at the same time as my wife, who expires the end of April. But she didn't submit hers until early March.
