If there is an expiration date, they'll tell you in the email. But seriously, why let them sit around for so long that it becomes an issue? If i had my admissions cycle to do over again, one of the things I would do would be to space the submission of my AMCASs out so that I didn't get deluged with a dozen all at once.
 
I know the UCs give like 30 days from the time of receipt. Really though, don't go by deadlines... I made the mistake of thinking that, because the deadline wasn't until Jan. or Feb. that I was perfectly okay submitting secondaries in late Oct. and early Nov. It was incredibly stupid and resulted in getting few interview offers. It worked out for me, but I certainly wouldn't do it again if I had to re-submit.
 
A few schools give 2 weeks. I'd try to get secondaries done within 1 week of receiving them.
