Am I supposed to say "Happy New Year (singular)" or "Happy New Year's (possessive)"? Hello native English speakers, Am I supposed to say "Happy New Year (singular)" or "Happy New Year's (possessive)"? I always get confused every year because I hear both from different native speakers. Please clarify. Thank you.

Well, you answered your own question: "Each year I hear natives saying both." Colloquially, both are fine. The "correct answer" may be different.
