Just wanting to know if anyone has had to postpone the interview after getting the date? If so how long can one get before scheduing another interview. Or will this cause problems like red flags or anything like that?
Any help advice is appreciated
Thanking in advance

Hi Lina, I postponed my interview once I got the date. They only sent me packet 4 one week before my scheduled interview date and I was going to be out of the country at the time, infact I was visiting my fiance in the states, so I sent them an email and wrote them a letter and they postponed the interview by 12 days so that I could get home. I think I remember it saying on packet 4 that they will only postpone it for emergencies. I guess you could call the embassy call centre number (It's expensive but when I called they told me what to put in the RE: line of the email so it got to the right department faster) It didn't cause any red flags for me as I was approved and received the visa the next day, but I would think carefully about why you need to postpone as they are going to need a reason, I had to send them a copy of my flight plans to prove I was out of the country.
Hope this helps!

I managed to get mine brought forward so they do change them... would definately be easier to stick with the date they gave you though ... so consider how important it is.... you know!!
Good luck!

We postponed ours by a week -- we just emailed them and they gave us a date the very next week -- easy as pie and caused no problems
