My boss, Mr Shirley, finally recognized the value I bring to the company. He decided on December 24, 2022 to give me a bonus, 20% more than I got last yearl The delivery diver brought the check on 12/28/22 but I didn't hove time to cash it untal 1/3/23 thanks to my out-of-town relatives. In what year would this income get taxed? Thanks- Clark Griswoid Director - Food Additives \& Preservatives Shirley Enterprises, LLC
