I realize it's not wmic but wouldn't it be just as simple to use something like
net user username /dom | find "Password expires" Maybe you need wmic for a specific reason I don't know... I believe as long as you are logging in as a user within that domain it should pull the information without issue. I can think of a dozen other ways depending on what the end result you are looking for is.
