I have a overpayment on a 945 return I just finished. If I select to apply to next return is it treated as being deposited on 1/1/2010, if not what date is it treated as a deposit.

It should be treated as a deposit on the date it is identified as an overpayment applied. The earliesat this can be is the date the IRS received the return reporting the overpayment.

Just curious, what's the benefit of an earlier deposit date? They pay interest?

Yes, the IRS pays interest on refunds when required. For these purposes though, the earlier date is important to avoid possible underpayment penalties for 2010.

Trying to avoid late deposits. One day late is 2%, I/we make about 6/8 deposits a month (semi-weekly depositor) and 2009 total was about 8M. These can add up quickly.

I figured as much. Back-up withholding is a pain in the arse. What really sucks is when you get those $100,000 next day deposits that you find out about at the last minute.
