Re-entering the US from Canada after 90 days with the Visa Waiver Program
Upvote:11
ESTA is just permission to get on a plane. The program that controls your readmission to the US is the Visa Waiver Program, so if you are looking for information look for that.
The rule governing readmission when you have been in Canada (or Mexico or the Caribbean) is actually very simple, but is often badly described. The rule is that if you arrive on a VWP, and leave the US but stay in Canada, Mexico or the Caribbean islands, and attempt to re-enter the US before the end of the 90 days of the original admission, then you will be admitted only for the remainder of the 90 day period.
If you arrived in early March, then by the time you want to fly out in July the 90 day period will have expired. You will be eligible - and indeed must apply for - a new admission under the VWP.
Theoretically border guards can refuse you this new admission (as they can with any application), and if you were looking for another stay of 90 days they probably would. But as you are passing through the US for a short time in order to fly home they are not going to do that - assuming that you have tickets you can show them. People make transits like this all the time with no problems, even before Covid.
This assumes of course that Covid restrictions are lifted to allow you to do this.
