You can check the man pages of passwd for more details.

Code:
-S This will output a short information about the status of the password for a given account. Available to root
user only. 

-w This will set the number of days in advance the user will begin receiving warnings that her password will
expire, if the user’s account supports password lifetimes. Available to root only.

-i This will set the number of days which will pass before an expired password for this account will be taken to
mean that the account is inactive and should be disabled, if the user’s account supports password lifetimes.
Available to root only.
