There is a warning clip on the outside brake pad on either side. It is a small metal piece that will start to squeek when stopping at low speed. generic pads wont last long after that point so i recomend replacing them soon. If the pads do not squeek or have the warning clip there should be at least 1/8 of an inch on all pads. Depends a lot on how you brake. If you accelerate to every red light and put on the brakes hard, you might last a year and a half. If you take it easy, two and a half, three years.
