Hi @ricardosaracino, can you specify the version of igniteui-angular that you're currently using? After 11.2 there shouldn't be any issues with updating the validity of the input. You can look at the Reactive Forms Demo just to verify.

Additionally, if you're trying to manually update the touched or dirty properties through API methods, this will currently not reflect on the styling of the input. The workaround for this is to call updateValueAndValidity after you've updated the properties. More on this can be found here - #6434.
