I have read that there is a policy of not enforcing the issue of intent
for E visa holders in your situation. I can't find the exact article
but you may wish to visit some informational site such as murthy.com or
shusterman.com. Also, see the quotation below is from a presentation
text from the American Immigration Lawyersociation (AILA) that
should give you confidence.

Anyway, NEVER give wrong information on a government form. When you
sign the form, you are giving your word that it is accurate and if not,
it might be used in a way in the future that is not to your advantage.
It might be worth your while to contact a knowledgeable immigration
attorney for a brief consultation.

Good luck.
