Hi, thanks for the excellent explanation. We're so very sorry for any confusion or difficulty you experienced here.
In November 2020, the Committee on Jewish Law and Standards of the Rabbinical Assembly voted to change how triennial Torah readings work in year 3 for some of the Torah portions.
The CJLS modified the triennial cycle for some combined parshiyot to change the reading for year 3 to be the third section of the parashah.
The following parshiyot have been modified:
Further details are available in the responsa: Modification of the Triennial Cycle Readings for Combined Parashot in Certain Years, Rabbi Miles B. Cohen, November 16, 2020
We were unaware of the CJLS responsa for about a year -- and then, in December 2021 we updated our Torah reading pages to match the new schedule.
It's obviously up to the rabbi of your congregation to decide, but in my (also layperson's) opinion, it seems perfectly acceptable for a congregation to continue to use the original triennial Torah readings that the CJLS first published in 1998 and Hebcal.com republished until December 2021.

thank you for trying to help, here is my question.
Summer of 2021 I checked Hebcal Torah reading for Aharei Mot 2022, for a Bag Mitzvah student I am working with. I am a synagogue volunteer, not a rabbi or cantor.
At the time, July or August, I just jotted down the ch, lines and 7 portions, and began with my student with the maftir.
just yesterday I 'double checked' that students learning was correct, and I found different portions for Aharei Mot!
in fact, now, the listing is the correct 3rd trinnial breakdown for 4/30/2022.
what happened??????to Hebcal!!!
i am embarrassed with the parents, Rabbi has been great, we can't begin to tell my student, she is nearly a perfectionist.
any ideas?

Hi, thanks for using Hebcal.
We didn't fully understand your question. Are you looking for the Torah reading page for Parashat Vayikra in 2023? Here it is:
