How long do you have to tell someone “Happy New Year?” ?

Cycling Magician: How long do you have to tell someone “Happy New Year?” ?
What I mean is, there is a certain time period to tell someone “Happy New Year.” Saying it on the middle of July would be clearly too late. So how long do you have to tell someone? The first month of the year (January)? second (February)?
