Not able to prepone

[ralr06]

I got the appt for March 3rd, 2007 initially. When I keep checking the visa availibility dates sometimes I see one or two dates earlier in Jan/Feb 2007 , but when I try to reschedule the appointment after I login I cant find the same dates when checked with availability, they still show March 07 dates.

What is wrong ? Any clues or tips. Doesnt the reschedule show earlier dates as it shows in check for availability dates.

per VFS/Consulate advancing date is not allowed.

Can I book a new one and then cancel the old one or do I have to cancel the existing one to book a new appt date if I find an earlier date?

You cannot have more than 1 appt active (even for a small period) so you need to cancel first one and create new one, remember that by doing you may get earlier date or not... as you are making slot for more than one.
