The DE gave me a temporary certificate which
expires in less than a month, what should I do assuming it doesn't come
soon? What's the usual turnaround time for such things?

Thanks,

Go to your FSDO near the time the temporary certficate is going to expire and
they should issue another temporary certificate. It is super easy.

As for the time it takes for the certificate to arrive...with me it has always
been about 7 days aftert my original temporary certificate was going to expire.
