I booked return. Doesn't really matter but make sure your cancel the return flight so USCIS knows for sure you didn't take it.

Thanks for the reply, I was scared about when you enter the point of entry, custom may asked why you brought a return? Are you planning on going back....and then deny me entry :(

No question about that. They know it's cheaper and if they ask you can tell them it's cheaper. Even if you DID want to go back there's nothing wrong with that and you can't be denied entry for that reason. No stress :)
