Why an expired article is listed as not expired

I am feeling silly, failing on the simplest task — moving an expired article to an archive.

When I put some <txp:if_expired> test words </txp:if_expired> in an article’s excerpt, they are shown — indicating, that this article is expired. But the same article remains as still not expired on its section:

<txp:if_article_list><h3>Announcements</h3></txp:if_article_list>
<txp:if_expired> test: expired <txp:else /> test: not-expired <txp:article /> </txp:if_expired>
<txp:if_article_list><h3>Archive</h3></txp:if_article_list>
<txp:if_expired> test: expired <txp:article /> </txp:if_expired>

There is still only one article in that section for announcements (its Expired date set to past on Write: More in an admin panel). Publish expired articles? set to Yes on TxP advanced preferences. What I should also do? Or where I have made a mistake?

The if_expired tag should be used in an article form, or inside <txp:article>...</txp:article> tags. (or article_custom of course)
