I wear a lot of hats...
"The solutions and answers provided on Experts Exchange have been extremely helpful to me over the last few years. I wear a lot of hats - Developer, Database Administrator, Help Desk, etc., so I know a lot of things but not a lot about one thing. Experts Exchange gives me answers from people who do know a lot about one thing, in a easy to use platform." -Todd S.
It depends on what is FutureYr? How you have declared it in your original code? Is it just a variable or a control? Are you assigning the FutureYr back to a cell on the sheet? So many questions and not sure you will get your logical answer unless you provide these details.
Otherwise as such nothing is wrong with statement.

FutureYr = Format(DateValue(FutureYr)
Dim FutureYr As Date
this did not fix it:
FutureYr = Format(DateValue(FutureYr)
Use MsgBox FutureYr or Debug.Print FutureYr to see the value in immediate window. Do you see it in desired format?
How do you know that you don't get it in right format? What do you do next with FutureYr, do you place its value on the sheet or what?
If you are placing the value of FutureYr on the sheet, that might not work as sheet's default date separator will take over.
