“I haven’t had any luck finding available appointments. I’ve been checking several times throughout the day with no luck”
“I found my appointment on a Saturday afternoon at 3 PM. It appears less people are trying to grab appointments on the weekends.
But here’s a tip. Book an appointment on the site, like for a student visa or something like that. Fill out the application, get your name in the system and then once you’ve been confirmed, go back and cancel that appointment. This way when an appointment comes up, you can grab it right away, since you’re already in the system.”
“I had luck finding appointments on Monday/Tuesday evenings around 5:30-6:00 PST. I booked one and even cancelled one and rebooked all within a few weeks. I have my appointment on Wednesday.”
