Hi, long time reader first time post!!
I am still at novice level in VBA but keen to learn more. Through various resources, I have been able to construct some coding - see below - but am having trouble with getting the desired end results.
I have four columns of dates (Col's a to D), where I am trying to get the coding to move dates forward by one year, but only when the date in the last column (Coll D) is a past date. i.e. less than today. Whenever I run it, all dates in the stated columns are being updated bu a year, even future dated ones, so suspect the issue lies where I have attempted to identify the driving column. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Sub AAGGGHHH()
Dim n As Long 'Last row
Dim r As Range, h As Range, i As Range, j As Range, k As Range
Dim rng As Range 'Column D being the lead
Dim hrng As Range 'Column A
Dim irng As Range 'Column B
Dim jrng As Range 'Column C

Dim d As Date 'Date formation
Dim w As Date, x As Date, y As Date, z As Date

n = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row 'Defines last row
Set rng = Range("D3:D" & n) 'Defines range to look at
Set hrng = Range("A3:A" & n)
Set irng = Range("B3:B" & n)
Set jrng = Range("C3:C" & n)

For Each r In rng 'For each cell in Column D
d = r.Value 'Confirms date is populated in each cell in Column D
If d < Date Then 'If date in each cell is less than Today()
For Each h In hrng
w = h.Value
h.Offset(0, 0).Value = DateSerial(Year(w) + 1, Month(w), Day(w))
Next h
For Each i In irng
x = i.Value
i.Offset(0, 0).Value = DateSerial(Year(x) + 1, Month(x), Day(x))
Next i
For Each j In jrng
y = j.Value
j.Offset(0, 0).Value = DateSerial(Year(y) + 1, Month(y), Day(y))
Next j
For Each k In rng
z = k.Value
k.Offset(0, 0).Value = DateSerial(Year(z) + 1, Month(z), Day(z))
Next k
End If
Next r
End Sub

If you start asking yourself if now is a good time to save your Excel workbook, the answer is Yes
Addup same date, same month, 1 year yields special case: if D is leaf year: 29-Feb-2020, what date to return next year?
using DateSerial function, it returns 1-Mar-2021
I am using edate function, which give 28-Feb-2021 from D (last day of feb)
VBA Code:
Sub test()
Lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "D").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 3 To Lr
    Debug.Print Cells(i, "A").Value
    If Cells(i, "D") < Date Then
    Cells(i, "A").Value = Application.EDate(Cells(i, "A"), 12)
    Cells(i, "B").Value = Application.EDate(Cells(i, "B"), 12)
    Cells(i, "C").Value = Application.EDate(Cells(i, "C"), 12)
    End If
Next
End Sub

Thank you so much. How you condensed the individual rules I had tried into one routine is great. It works perfectly. Concerning your point around leap year, that should not be an issue, as the backend process of compiling the dates will ignore 29th Feb, and just stick to 28th Feb and 1st Mar. Once again, Many Thanks.
