I haven't confirmed that change and fare difference yet due to the many recent Covid related events.

Currently I'm a bit lost as to what the latest dates are that I can rebook for, should I wish to? I'm aware of the 12 month limit but I've read that this may not always be the case. Thanks for your assistance.
12 months from date of issue is the IATA rule, thou IATA allow for extensions beyond this assuming BA do. There are reports (myself included) of BA allowing ticket validity to be extended, but these are outlier cases and generally BA will say no to extending ticket validity. The first option is to try via MMB, failing that try a few different agents, you may get lucky.
