Hey guys! I just wanted to know when you were going to purchase your plane tickets to come to the US what did you buy? A round trip or One- way? And I am talking about for when your interview was approved and you have your visa. I am asking because one way tickets are VERY expensive. A one way ticket from sweden to north carolina is about 2k versus a round trip is about 600. What did you guys get? and is it okay to purchase a round trip and then just cancel the other one?

Thanks

Buy whichever is cheaper and suits your plans.

You can (and probably should) just cancel the return portion once you're moved! It's no issue to arrive on a round-trip, but some folks have warned that not cancelling the return can cause some confusions in systems later (plus, the airline will prefer that you do that and can release the seat!).

Buy which ever is cheaper. Cancel the return ticket later after arrival

They probably won't. Even if they do, just tell them that the one-way ticket was really expensive. We went with a one-way, because it was less expensive in our case.
