It's an invalid date. I want to check if it's a valid date. Thanks for your answer below. I miss understood this function. — tungserver, Sep 15 '16 at 04:45
You shouldn't rely on date functions alone to validate a date. — Devon Bessemer, Sep 15 '16 at 04:54

You specified 32 months. 32 months is 2 years + 8 months, so it's using the 8th month and advancing the years by 2.
