1. Since the S-User password usually expires within 6 months time. Does this mean that the password expires on the same date as 6 months later or does it expire 180 days later? 
   The password reset happens 6 months later. If the password is reset on the 2022/01/01 then the password will expire on 2020/07/01
   
   
2. What time of the date does the password expire? (At 0:00 UTC? or At 0:00 in local time?)
   The password would expire as per the local time. 
   
   
3. When does "the 6 months" start from the time of password reset? Is it when I change the S-ID Password of the S-user or when I set S-ID Password in PFS?
   S-ID Password for PFS can be set only when the S-ID Password is reset for S-ID Password. So 6 months will start when you change the S-ID Password. 
   It is recommended that you reset the S-ID Password using the below link rather than changing the password from the profile in the Community Portal:
