My very limited experience, FWIW, is that there's a nebulous time restriction on round-trip matching like this. You can definitely match in one direction every 6 months (which I do after each status lapses), but it hasn't worked for me with a month or two in between.
Also, if the second "match" (mLife to WoH) is attempted before 2/28, the current WoH status will still be in effect, so there's nothing to match anyway.
What am I missing here?
