Help with YouTube Shorts

I need help with videos that I want to appear as YouTube shorts uploading as regular long form videos. It's very frustrating. I managed to get one video to upload as a short, but I had to chop it down to under a minute.

I ran a test and had a 2 minute 25 seconds video in Premiere Pro, exported it, tried to upload it as a YouTube short, but it was added as a long form video. I then just cut the very same video down, that was still in my Premiere Pro project, to under a minute and then re-tried uploading it to YouTube, and it then uploaded as a short, so, it seems that it's tied to the time of the video.

Why do YouTube say you can now upload 3 minute shorts when that's blatantly not true for a LOT of people having the same issues?.

I made sure the video has the right aspect ratio for shorts and also tried uploading it from both my PC and my phone but still the video uploads as a long form video. Is there any sure fire way of sorting this out?

Thanks.
