Travel bank credits expire one year from the date of issue. They can be used for travel beyond one year, but it has to be booked before the credit expires.

Technically for fee-free cancellation/redeposit, you need to cancel by 12/31. But elevate status has typically been effective for roughly one week after the year ends, so you could probably cancel on (say) Jan 4 without penalty.
