Add a starting year by using SimpleDateFormat.set2DigitYearStart, the exact year will be calculated be a threshold number.
Example:
Birth Date: Start date will be 99 years ago from the present year e.g. 2023 - 99 = 1924. It means the lowest year will be 1924 and highest will be 2023.
240101 -> 01/01/1924
230101 -> 01/01/2023
Expiry Date: Start date will be 49 years ago from the present year e.g. 2023-49 = 1974.
740101 -> 01/01/1974
730101 -> 01/01/2073
