Hello,
As per the blog post, the destination will become read only any time after July 1st. This guarantees that is it not read only before July 1st. It is not allowed to send both final urls and destination url at the same time. If you prefer to wait until after migration, you'll need to check if the ad was migrated, or, handle this error. You can also use validateOnly flag for your updates to see if an error occurs without actually making any changes to the object. -Danial, AdWords API Team.
