Macro - Working except it's skipping Line 3

Copied around an existing Macro I found online. Where it searches the data on sheet 1 for a name in column E and then pastes it into the corresponding sheet in the workbook.
It works great and moves all the data over except it leaves Line 3 (A3) of the Data for some reason. If I run the macro a second time, it'll sort that last item just fine.
But wondering where in the code I'm skipping Line 3 in Sheet1?
Below is the truncated example of the code. I have the meat of the code duplicated multiple times based on Last Name and Sheet #.

Any help?

Sub Sort_Date()

Dim StatusCol As Range
Dim Status As Range
Dim PasteCell As Range

Set StatusCol = Sheet1.Range("E2:E300")

For Each Status In StatusCol

If Sheet2.Range("A2") = "" Then
Set PasteCell = Sheet2.Range("A2")
Else
Set PasteCell = Sheet2.Range("A1").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0)
End If

If Status = "SMITH" Then Status.Offset(0, -4).Resize(1, 15).Cut PasteCell

Next Status

End Sub

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Instead of looping through column E, why not just filter the column on "SMITH" and cut/paste the visible range?

I'm actually looping thru multiple names. Just posted the one "Smith" as an example. The full code is the above - times maybe 13 or 14 sheets/different names.
Probably not the cleanest way of doing it but I'm still learning.

Rather the asking for help using only one name, it is better to describe in full what you want to do so that you end up with a final solution. It would be easier to help if you could upload a copy of your file to a free site such as www.box.com or www.dropbox.com. Once you do that, mark it for 'Sharing' and you will be given a link to the file that you can post here. Explain in detail what you want to do referring to specific cells, rows, columns and sheets using a few examples from your data (de-sensitized if necessary).
