I need some advice, if what I'm facing is a technical glitch or just the norm.

I applied as a FSW on 2nd Jan 2021 and the minimum entry criteria DATE was shown as 2nd Jan.
When I logged in last week however, it had been changed to 1 July 2021.

I'm confused. How can the date be later than when I've applied? please do correct me if I'm wrong.

Moreover, I'm worried if this will affect the tie breaker rule in draws. Since the minimum criteria date displayed (1 July) is later than when I applied (2 Jan)

Thank you in advance for the help.

Yes I did! I wrote to the Immigration department and they replied saying even though the date changes are displayed it DOES NOT affect the tie-breaker rule ( it still remains the date we applied). They didn't explain why the date had been changed though, just confirmed that their records still show the original date we submitted our application
