In order to maintain IFR certification for GPS, the database must be updated every 28 days. Also, the certification flight test can not be conducted with an expired database. A good idea is to go ahead and get your database subscription prior to the delivery of the modification. This way you will not have to be worried about your IFR certification being invalid.
