Two Factor authentication and changing passwords

I was wondering if anyone could point me towards some recommendations
for how often passwords should be changed if two-factor authentication
is used.

I am working with a client who thinks that using SecurID tokens means
they should never have to change their passwords but I am not
comfortable with this.
