Have I abused the terms of my ESTA/WVP?

When I was admitted entry into the US on the visa waiver program I had a return flight which I showed to the border officer. After I arrived the airline changed my flight numerous times until it left me with an over 24 layover, and because of the coronavirus risk and obvious inconvenience that caused I didn't feel safe nor comfortable doing that. I then cancelled my flight to search for a new one and don't currently hold one, is this breaking the rules of the VWP? I am soon trying to apply for satisfactory departure in order for an additional 30 days to exit the US and will have to bring up cancelling my flight because of the long layover and coronavirus risk it caused, but I'm afraid they'll revoke my ESTA for not currently holding a return ticket. Flight costs are high and I cannot afford one even with the refund, as well as having to pay for accommodation to self isolate in for 14 days because my parents who I live with are afraid of catching the virus. My mother is a community care worker for the most vulnerable and my father is in the vulnerable category himself. Please help.

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

Navigating the U.S. Family-Based Immigration Visa Process

For families hoping to immigrate to the United States, the visa process can be overwhelming. With so much uncertainty and complexity involved, it's important to have a clear understanding of the steps and requirements. The first step is determining which family-based immigration visa applies to you. There are two types: immediate relatives and family preference. The former includes spouses, parents, and unmarried children under the age of 21 who are U.S. citizens. Family preference visas are for more distant relatives such as siblings, married children of U.S. citizens, and spouses and unmarried children of permanent residents. Once you know which visa you're eligible for, you'll need to file a petition with USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services). This step requires providing documentation such as birth certificates and marriage licenses, as well as proof of your relationship to the U.S. citizen or permanent resident sponsoring you. After your petitio...
