The MR Terms and Conditions website (https://www.marriott.com/loyalty/terms/default.mi#elite) explicitly states that Jan 14 date.

I waited until the 29th (was considering a short stay over the weekend, chose not to) to claim the 5 elite nights from the Elite Choice 50... which took about 12 hours before it showed up and put me over 75 for the year. Could not get to the Elite Choice 75 site. I'm fine with being a little patient at this point given the 14th as a deadline and no free stay uses coming up soon, but it would be nice if the IT worked/works automatically.
