RedirectToAction is not sending users to correct page

I want to redirect the user if the date is past 5/25/2020 otherwise they get the current view

    public ActionResult Login()
    {
        DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;
        DateTime expirationDate = new DateTime(2020, 05, 25);

        if (dt > expirationDate)
        {
            return RedirectToAction("ThankYou", "Home");
        }
        else
        {

        }
        return View();
    }

Code from HomeController.cs

    public IActionResult Index()
    {
        var userId = User.Identity.Name;
        string userIdfromCache = SaveToCache("UserID", userId);
        return RedirectToAction("Login", "Authentication");
    }

    public IActionResult ThankYou()
    {
        return View();
    }

The IActionResult ThankYou() is not redirecting the user. It should display a static HTML file

I guess your problem is somewhere else, I tried your code it works just fine!

The only return in the ActionResult is the View(). Replace RedirectToAction("ThankYou", "Home"); with return RedirectToAction("ThankYou", "Home"); and it should work
