I think the clarification applies most to those currently/already employed. If you transfer employers, there’s a possibility your current employer would downgrade your access in JPAS before your new employer ‘picks’ you up. Isn’t that a possibility? It’s still relevant to the many of cleared professionals currently employed, still working, with overdue PRs (which is a growing number!)
