You don't get a remap every year. What you get is a one-year countdown every time you use a standard remap. It doesn't matter how long you wait between remaps GÇö once you use that standard remap, it'll take you a year before you can do it again.
What so-called bonus remaps do is that they let you remap even if you're still on that timer. When you create a new character, you get one bonus remap (kind ofGǪ it's a bit in-between a normal one and a bonus version, plus a normal one, for a total of two remaps at your immediate disposal), and occasionally, CCP hands out bonus remaps for various reasons. Those are the only means of getting bonus remaps and as you can see, there is nothing you can do to influence that.
It's also worth clarifying the whole GÇ£only if you're on a timerGÇ¥ bit: bonus remaps are only used if you have no immediately available standard remap.
So if you have one standard remap (because you can never have more than one under normal circumstances), and two bonus remaps, what happens when you try to remap is that the standard remap is used and the year-long timer starts. If you want to remap before that time is up, you have to sacrifice one of the bonus remaps, and this does not in any way affect the remap timer. So if you remap in January, then the timer says that you'll get your normal remap back the next January. If, in June, you decide that it was a bad attribute pick and remap, you are now down to a 7-month timer, and a single remaining bonus remap. If, in November, you decide to remap again, you lose that last bonus remap and the timer is now down to 2 months. In January, the timer is up and you now have one normal remap available again. The bonus remaps are gone forever.
GÇ£If you're not willing to fight for what you have in GëívGëí you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.GÇ¥
