New H-1B six year maximum Guidance

GYC

Registered Users (C)
Anyone read new Guidance about the H and L status,
one of the section says you need not to be in H-1B status to stay beyond the six year maximum.

does this mean one who used AP or EAD and Lost of H-1B status can get back to H-1B?

"Clarifies that H-1B aliens, who qualify under American Competitiveness in the Twenty-First Century Act of 2000 (AC21) (Pub.L.106-313) section 106(a) and (c), need not be in H-1B status when requesting an additional period of stay beyond the six year maximum."
