AAD Connect Sync is not updating UPN Changes!

Recently changes to UPN is not getting sync'd to Office 365.   In the Sync Manager, it shows that the UPN change.  But in actual it did not change.  I have changed other attributes on the same user account and that DOES change properly, however UPN does not change.  Looking at the export details it even shows the new value for UPN, but when I check get-msoluser , the UPN has not changed.

Help, not sure where to look for this?

It happens more often than not in my experience. You can however update the UPN directly in the cloud by using the following PowerShell cmdlet:

Set-MsolUserPrincipalName -UserPrincipalName *** Email address is removed for privacy *** -NewUserPrincipalName *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

Apparently you cannot update UPN from AD and have it SYNC to a user who is already Licensed.
