As it’s yearly, I put the year I want it to end. When you set up Custom/Yearly you can choose the months in the year you want the even to appear. After Tapping Custom, tap Yearly and you will see this:
oops, I left out Sep, but I think you get the idea. After choosing months tap New Event and it will show:
You can see that it says that it repeats every year and the months it will repeat in

Hi helpout1,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're having an issue creating a repeating event in your Calendar. We'd like to help.
From what you've described, you'd like to set a calendar event that repeats every 1st of the month starting in May. To do this, you'll create an even on May 1 and when adding the details of that event, you'll choose Repeat and choose the option that works best for you. For you, that would be the Monthly option. These steps may help you get through this:
Add an event
1. In Day view, tap at the top of the screen.
2. Enter the title of the event.
3. Tap Location or Video Call, then enter a physical location or tap FaceTime to enter a video link for a remote event.
You can also copy a FaceTime link you created or received and paste it in the Location field. See Create a link to a FaceTime call on iPhone.
4. Enter the start and end times for the event, the travel time, invitees, attachments, and so on. (Swipe up, if necessary, to enter all the meeting information.)
5. Tap Add.
Hope that helps.
Cheers!
This is a little tricky, but here’s an idea:
I just test this, and it works. I have an event for the 1st of those months, and it repeats every year.

Contact your carrier, or log in to their customer portal.
And in the future instead of “threadjacking” - posting a totally unrelated question at the end of a thread about something completely different, click Ask the Community at the top of every page and create a new post. You will get much more attention from the other users in this user-to-user forum. You’re just lucky that I was answering the original post in this thread.
Hello helpout,
Thank you for getting back to us. "Ends" refers to the time the event will end. For "End Repeats", it is referring to when you want the repeating event to stop going forward. You can choose "Never" as an option.
Cheers!
Lawrence your solution got me to the answer. Your screenshots gave me too many reminders (every day of the month for 5 months). I just wanted 5 reminders. To correct it, I turned on the "Days of the Week" slider. Then selected "First Day". But then I noticed the iPhone corrected me lol. It automatically changed Custom frequency and year (from yearly and year) to "monthly" and "month". You said it...the iPhone calendar is tricky.
Okay so "Starts" 5/1/23. What would "Ends" be ? You recommened I set "Repeat" to monthly. What would "End Repeat" be ?
Thank you.

Thanks Lawrence. So for "Starts" you used 5/1. What did you put for "Ends" ?
