How long does it take you to get an open interview date ? We just paid the Fee after receiving packet 4. We are unable to get an appointment at this time and they can't tell us when one will become available

If I recall correctly, I had to wait about a month or so before I was able to get an interview date. All I can advise is to keep checking daily until they open up blocks for interviews. Good luck!

I think the average is a week or two. I was lucky last year and got one immediately, but check every single day multiple times as people cancel and more spots open randomly.

I dont know if this is a coincidence or not, but the two times I saw open appointments was on a Tuesday.

The first time I went in it was a Tuesday, and didnt realize the scarcity of an appointment, so didnt book it :-(

then it took a week for another apt to show up and it was a Tuesday

I accessed the site on 10/27 and apt is for Dec 1
