It's not even the importing, the statements have this artifact also. Statement 1 covers 2016-01-02 to 2016-02-01. It contains transactions between those dates. Statement 2 covers 2016-02-02 to 2016-03-01. It includes a transaction from 2016-02-01 (or even 2016-01-31!). I assumed this was because the date of the transaction was the date it was charged, not the date it was debited (or whatever the term is) from the account.
