Hi,
I have scheduled a visa interview for my parents on Oct 6,2006. That was the earliest available date when I looked for one a couple of weeks back. I was thinking of rescheduling it to an earlier date but saw the contradictory message in the VFS website about people having a confirmed date having to cancel their appointment before being allowed to reschedule.
But when I tried to reschedule without canceling the appointment, it does let me go to the reschedule page and displays the following message
'Once you select a date your previous interview appointment will be cancelled and your new appointment will be confirmed.
Carry your new appointment letter at the time of your interview.'
For the last week I have tried looking for an earlier appointment but see nothing. I am wondering if I dont see any earlier appointments because the system wants me to cancel the existing appointment before it will let me even see any earlier available dates.
Is this true? Do I need to cancel my existing appt before the system will show me an earlier appt? Or am I not seeing anything because of the heavy rush even though the system lets me reschedule without cancelling an existing appt? Can any of you please clarify? This will help me a lot to follow the proper procedure and hopefully get an earlier date.
Thanks a lot!

PS: When is the best time for me to look for an earlier appt (like what hour of the day?)
Keep up the great work that you guys do in helping others thru this process.
