Good luck! I had an issue with my POE and although it was a different issue to yours there was a really nice lady at CBP Logan who was a great help. Hope you get it all sorted.

The moral of the story is, cancel the bloody return flight by letting the airline know you won't be on it. Either that or buy a one way ticket. Don't do what you did.

Or get out of bed on the 8th. :)

I just spoke to a worker at the deferred inspection office in Jacksonville, FL about this very issue and she was telling me that she isn't going to remove the incorrect departure record. She said I should just provide the information during the AOS interview. I wasn't buying her story, so she is calling her supervisor to get more information.

My husband did the same thing. He was just caught up with the wedding and forgot to cancel the return flight. He saw this post and called our local CBP office today. They gave him another number to call. The person who picked up said he had nothing to worry about......obviously people on this thread are saying there is something to worry about.....any idea what next step is. He also called the airline but they didn't help

Guys, I had the same thing happen to me, even though I tought I cancelled the return flight. Obviously it happens to a lot of people. I think I read somewhere it's because of the new electronic system, idk. Anyways just try to get it fixed as soon as possible, but don't stress too much about it. It hasn't been an issue for me, and I was freaking out at first. :content:

Also...

How does one prove that one was not on a flight when teh airline states you were?

Well how can they say you're not here, when a few weeks after you "left" you're doing your biometrics for example? Does USCIS trust airlines more than its own offices??

You have been advised on how to correct the I-94.

It is up to your own decision now.

I called British Airways and they had me fill an online form to ask for a receipt I wasn't actually on the fly back to Italy

http://www.britishairways.com/travel/webforms/public/en_gb/?eId=120001&wfpId=customer_receipt

Unfortunately the automatic reply says it can take 28 days or more to get an answer.

Interestingly enough, it was British Airways for me too..I guess that's what makes easy to overstay a Visa: the airline actually tells DHS that you left the States as supposed to.

After coming across this conversation I've just checked my I-94 and I'm the same BA have put me down as leaving the US. Although I actually cancelled my flight!!!!!!!!!! So now I'm trying to reach CBP but none of their phone numbers work.
