Do FAFSA corrections change the submission date?

I submitted my FAFSA right away this year to make sure that I would get the most financial aid. I hadn’t heard any updates whatsoever on it and assumed it to be submitted correctly. I thought everything was good until today my roommate received their award letter. I went to check up on my FAFSA and noticed that it said a signature was missing. I added my signature, and now it says that the original date of submission was when I first submitted it in October, but now there is a correction date of today. Will my school look at the first date or the date that I corrected today for financial aid???
