Latest Backup Date to Time Machine Wrong

The date listed when I click on the Time Machine icon at the top right of my screen displays the wrong date for my latest backup date. I just backed it up and it is still showing a date from a couple weeks ago. What can I do to correct this?


Thanks.

iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)

Relaunching the menubar is done from the application Terminal


Located in your Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app


Copy and paste this command line into the open Terminal window:

killall -KILL SystemUIServer


hit the return key, then quit terminal.
