I aged between invitation to apply and application— am I screwed?

I applied for FSW EE, and got the invitation to apply. I have aged and am now under the minimum for my group. Do I have to decline the invitation?

Age gets locked at your ITA. You are good. You won't lose any age points post ITA.

Your score locks in at AOR, but there's this exemption clause that says if your score fell solely because you had a birthday between ITA and AOR, you are exempt from refusal. Check this out:
