Work Permit eService Error

Hello everyone, I hope you are well. I recently received an invitation to apply for a temporary work permit under the IEC program. I am currently filling out my details on the eService page and I have noticed an issue. Whenever I select a start and finish date for my employment, education and residence histories, once this information has been saved and added, it shows as the month prior. So for example if I select March 8th, 2015, once this information has been saved it is displaying as 2015-02-08, when it should be 2015-03-08. Likewise if I select the finish date as November 16th, 2016, it is displaying as 2016-10-2016. I selected January 1st, 2017 to see what would happen and it displays as 2017-00-01.

Has anyone seen this error before? It seems very strange.

Does e-Service count from 00 rather than from 01 or is it simply a technical glitch like I assume?

Should I go ahead and submit the application as it is at the moment with the wrong months on display, or should I select the wrong months in the drop down on purpose so it displays as the correct month? So say for example I want to select May 1st, 2016 , selecting June 1st, 2016 so that it displays as 2016-05-01?

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much!

TLDR: eService is displaying dates one month earlier than I select on the drop down. Does e-Service count January as 00 rather than 01?
