within h1 validity ante within first 6 years of H1B na? outside h1 validity ante after 6years h1?

Within validity period means it could be within your first 6 years or 3 year extensions. This grace period is meant to help with a sudden job loss.

Actually it is 2 grace periods of upto 10 days outside validity period. Outside validity period means before you start your h1 and need to come to U. S. and after completion of 6 years and you would have to leave for not being able to find another job who can sponsor h1 or your current employer does not want to continue for whatever reason.

Main Highlights:

1. 60 day grace period within h1 validity period 

2. 10 day grace period outside h1 validity period

3. EAD on compelling circumstances. There is no definition for compelling circumstances but will be dealt on a case by case basis. The basic understanding about compelling circumstances is that the circumstances should be beyond the candidate control

4. 140 and therefore Priority Date can be revoked on if "material errors" 

60 day grace period only once or n number of times. I think in the proposed rule they mentioned it is only once in life time. Is it changed in final rule?

It's not mentioned clearly if it's only a one time thing. So I am assuming it's forever, between jobs you can spend 60 days without job.
