正解:B

解説:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:
Constructive receipt means an employee is considered paid when wages are made available without restriction, even if they do not physically receive the money.
Option A (On the paycheck date) is incorrect because the date of the paycheck does not determine when wages are constructively received.
Option B (When cashed) is incorrect because an employee is considered paid before they cash the check.
Option C (When ACH file is created) is incorrect because the wages are not yet available to the employee.
Option D is correct because once wages are accessible (direct deposit or paycheck available for pickup), the IRS considers them "received" for tax purposes.
