Narrative:

We stopped in ZZZ to drop off one passenger with a quick turn out. I was sic on this leg. The PIC is a contract pilot whom I have never flown with until this trip. I walked the passenger inside the FBO and paid the landing fee while the captain stayed in the plane and got the IFR clearance for our departure. I came back to the plane; shut the door; and asked for a briefing on our clearance. He gave me a briefing that included a runway; heading; altitude; route; frequency; and squawk code. I asked him which way to turn after departure because it was just about a 180 degree turn; he said that he couldn't remember and to just ask as soon as we check on with departure. This was red flag #1 that I did pick up on.we depart and I switch to departure and immediately ask which way he wanted us to turn and the controller said to make a right turn to 090 deg. The controller immediately comes back and says you do realize that you had a void time of xa:50 and right now it's xa:52. I looked over at the captain in confusion and because I wasn't aware of this void time. So I apologize to the controller. A few minutes later the controller asked us to go direct to some fix that wasn't loaded in our GPS or on the route the captain briefed me on. I told the controller that the fix wasn't on our flight plan and he said yea it should be! I read him off a few of our next waypoints and he said that it was wrong and we were cleared xyz. So I loaded the correct route in our GPS and again apologize to the controller for the confusion.what I feel really caused the issue was the lack of correctly copying down the clearance and briefing the sic on every aspect of the clearance including the void time. Unfortunately; I was inside with the passenger when the captain was copying this down; so I didn't have any way of backing him up on copying down the clearance. The captain I think is 70 and we had two early mornings of flying. So maybe age and fatigue could have been a human performance limitation. Afterwards; I talked to our chief pilot and safety director about this; specifically the void time issue. They are going to be limiting the use of this contract pilot.
