The only way you'd be able to get another raise so soon is if your responsibilities have changed a lot since January. If so, check out Salary.com to research competitive salaries in your area, document all the new responsibilities, and schedule a meeting with your boss. Odds are he/she won't be able to authorize a mid-year raise due to budget constraints, but when the time comes next January, your boss will have this information already and may consider a larger raise than you would have received.

It's ABSOLUTELY too soon to ask for another raise. The 2nd quarter has just finished, and most companies do not realize their profits/losses until the end of the 3rd quarter every year. You should wait until after the holidays and then ask for a raise. Doing it before then makes you seem ungrateful for the previous one, and just hungry to get more money regardless of how the company is doing as a whole. Also, asking for raises during the year is a good way to knock yourself out of a Christmas bonus, if one is available. Asking for a raise in January ensures a holiday bonus PLUS possibility for the raise.

Yes it's probably too soon, unless you've gotten a promotion or your job duties have changed a lot. Even if they have, that might be what the January raise was for.

Yes most people get raises once a year unless there is a job change or promotion.

If you just got one in January, yes.
