Apples and dingleberries.
There is a fundamental, substantive, and definitive difference between erroneous information in the application VERSUS entering the wrong date in the signature box.
The completeness check does not involve an assessment, let alone verification, of information submitted. It merely checks to see that necessary information has been provided, and that information (as provided) meets the requirements for PROCESSING the application. Many, many errors will thus pass the completeness check so that the application results in AOR.
Those sorts of mistakes can be and often are addressed later in the process. If they do not have an impact which negates qualification they can be, in effect, disregarded. Or, they can be corrected by the applicant later in the process.
The date in the signature box, however, is the critical date which the whole application is based upon, by definition. This date is not mere information. It is the operative date the application is made. If the applicant makes an error in entering this date, not only does previous reporting indicate there is no way to amend this, that is what makes sense.
