TypeError '2019' is not thenable

I wanted to create a cucumber test step with protractor,but I got in the expect step the '2019' is not thenable. Here is my source code:

        this.Then(/^I check that the calculated year from the current month\(if current month >= 6 ==> current year = current year \+ 2,else current year = current year \+ 1\)$/,function(callback) {

            var actualDate=new Date();
            var actualYear=actualDate.getFullYear();
            var actualMonth=actualDate.getMonth()+1;
            //expect(targetAmountPO.getYesInflationLabel().isDisplayed()).eventually.to.equal(true).then(callback);
            targetAmountPO.getYesInflationLabel().isDisplayed().then(function() {
                targetAmountPO.getYesInflationCorrectionAnswer().isSelected().then(function(){
                    targetAmountPO.getYesInflationLabel().getAttribute("outerText").then(function(text,callback){
                        //console.log(text);
                        var splittedString=text.split(":");
                        //console.log(splittedString[1]);
                        if(actualMonth>=6)
                        {
                            actualYear+=2;
                            var yearString=actualYear.toString();
                            console.log(yearString);
                             expect(yearString).to.eventually.contain(splittedString[1]).and.notify(callback);

                            //console.log(actualYear);

                        }
                        else
                        {
                             expect(actualYear+1).to.include(splittedString[1]).and.notify(callback);

                        }

                })

                })

            })


        })

At the expect(yearString).to.eventually.contain(splittedString[1]).and.notify(callback);

I got the '2019' is not thenable. The yearString is 2019 is good. But why is not thenable?

Can you help me?

As you've properly handled the promise returned by getAttribute("outerText") the values in yearString and splittedString are just actual values and not promises so you can just use a chai assertion and not a chai as promised assertion like

expect(yearString).to.contain(splittedString[1])
callback()

and you'll be able to test that to ensure its not calling back before the assertion actually does the check
