b. Oct 2007 to Nov 2007 (2 months)

2. Went back to home country. H1B expired

3. Came back to US in Aug 2008 on student visa

4. Completed masters in US and then found a job at Company B. Got a new H1B from Nov 2010.

Now my question is did my 6 year H1B clock reset when i got a new H1B in Nov 2010. In other words, can i stay till Nov 2016 on the H1B. Or does my first H1B in 2006 has any bearing on the max. time i can stay in US now.
