After this week is finished I will have seen just about everyone and then that is it. It IS a NEW YEAR after all. Some people think it is a saying only reserved for 12 midnight on New Years Eve but not I. Carry on!

It depends on how many times you run into them!  If they remind you that you already did, then I guess that's a good sign to wait until net year.

Carol - I see nothing wrong with saying Happy New Year to anyone you haven't seen yet through the month of January. After that, I would just say "good to see you".

As far as I'm concerned, it's always appropriate.  Though, after January, not very relevant.  Unless it's Chinese New Year (Feb 8), Orthodox Calendar (January 14), Jewish (October 2), probably more that I don't know about.

If it's the first time you're seeeing someone, I think mid-January is OK. Who could fault you for wishing them well? And on Feb. 29 we get to say "Happy Leap Day!"
