H1B grace period details/clarification
Could you please clarify if the 60-day H-1B grace period is available only once per the full 3-year H-1B validity period, or does a new grace period become available with each new H-1B petition approval within that time frame?
(eg: For example, My H1B period is(2025-2028) if I use my 60-day grace period now, and subsequently join a new employer under a new H-1B petition approval, would I be eligible for another 60-day grace period if I lose my job again in 2026?). need some clarity on this as I heard that you can use 60 day grace period only once in petition period, is this true??

Yes, a new H1B will be eligible for a new grace period to the best of my knowledge.
