Sorry, if you have the check in your hands,
its already too late.  The date you cash it doesn't
make any difference.  I believe, and here I may
be wrong because I don't have my Sylvia Porter
at the office, that even if you ask for payment
to be deferred to the new year from an employer
or client, and you have control over when the payment
is to be made, that the IRS can nail you for
income in the current year.
