Inconsistent CountIF results in VBA Macro

Hi,

I've got a macro that is pulling data in from a daily timesheet file and summarising it into weeks. It's looping through the 'sum' calculation based on the number of weeks there are in the header row, which itself is created based on the timesheet file. The problem is that I'm encountering odd behaviours on a couple of the files that use the macro, but not on others.

For instance there are two files that seem to think that the number of weeks to loop for is 5, whereas it's actually 48.

I've narrowed the problem down (I think) to a single line in the macros (below), which is this one:

Code:
NumWeeks = Application.CountIf(Rows(1), ">=" & First_Date)

Is there a reason why the code is producing the 'wrong' output? Is there a more error proof method of achieving the same result?

There are two macros here. They're called one after the other by another macro that pulls all the timesheet information in from elsewhere and temporarily stores it on a single sheet within this file.

Code:
Sub FilterTimesheet()

    Dim First_Date As Date
    Dim Last_Date As Date
    Dim First_Monday As Date
    Dim Dateoffset As Range
    Dim Date_Iter As Date
    Dim NewHeaders As Range
    Dim NumFilteredRows As Long
    Dim NumFilteredCol As Long
    Dim LR As Long
    Dim LC As Long
    Dim SearchRange As Range
    Dim CopyRange As Range
    Dim HeaderRow As Range
    Dim i As Integer
    Dim j As Integer
    Dim fnd As Variant
    Dim rplc As Variant
                
    fnd = "="
    rplc = "#"
               
' Go to the Timesheet Data worksheet and find the earliest and latest dates from the header row
    Worksheets("Timesheet Data").Activate
    Last_Date = Application.WorksheetFunction.Max(Rows(1))
    First_Date = Application.WorksheetFunction.Min(Rows(1))
' Do a little error check so we don't go back a week too far
    If Weekday(First_Date) = 2 Then
        Date_Iter = First_Date
    Else
        First_Date = First_Date - Weekday(First_Date, 3)
        Date_Iter = First_Date
    End If
     
' Create the Filtered Data Worksheet, deleting any previous version to ensure clean data.
' First set variable j to the number of sheets in the work book.

    For i = 1 To j
        If Sheets(i).Name = "Filtered Data" Then
