Absolutely. First, remove it from the original wrapper and then use your handy vacuum sealer to seal it before putting it in the freezer. Let it thaw in the fridge for a few days before using it.

Well, I freeze Cream Cheese all the time. It's something I buy extra of when its on sale, and freeze it. No problems with it that we have noticed.

No please don't. It really messes up the flavor and consistency. I have tried it many times and it doesn't work.

I've noticed a texture change after I've frozen and thawed cream cheese, but I still use it on my bagels. The flavor isn't affected by freezing.
I suppose one could slightly improve the texture by running the cream cheese through a food processor, but I'v never bothered.
And according to a savvy friend,three months is the "freezer life" of cream cheese.

Our son and girlfriend freeze sometimes for use in a garden salad. It's quite good.

RE: Freezing Cream Cheese
Yes, definitely. As the other posters have mentioned, it will be best used for cooking once you've frozen it. According to stilltasty, it will keep at least a couple of months frozen:
