Reschedule appointment?

[TheATeam 0]

I got an appointment date of April 22nd. I'm excited to have an appointment for my interview, the thing is, that the medical people only do medicals on Wednesdays, so I need to have my interview on a Thursday. I emailed them back asking if it could be switched to the 24th. I hope that's going to happen. If not, I guess I'm going to have a couple of trips to Vancouver, or a week long stay! Has anyone rescheduled with Vancouver? Does anyone know if it's pretty easy? Or is this going to set us back quite a bit?

I didn't know he only took appointments one day a week! I know they are a lot more flexible about rescheduling than Montreal.

This is a guess, but I think it may be pretty likely that they have already scheduled other interviews for the same week they gave you yours. This is assuming they fill in the interview slots more or less in order. But perhaps the following week is still open? Do they take phone calls about interview appointments?

You could always keep the appointment, see Dr Morgan the previous week, and have a vacation in between the two (assuming you can afford to do this). Southern BC is really lovely. We are planning a week on Vancouver Island after the interview, assuming we get enough advance notice of our date to book something nice there.

Carla rescheduled her interview, but that was last year and I am not sure the exact circumstnaces.

Yeah, I've emailed them about it. Hopefully they'll be able to reschedule. I know that they've already scheduled for the week after my appointment. I'm going to try to keep the appointment if they can't reschedule it. It is too bad that the doctor only does medicals once a week, but that's the way that it goes. We'll have to see I guess!

As far as I know they don't take any phone calls at all. It might be different though because it's about an interview that's already scheduled. I'll try and see.

Hopefully you put something on the subject line of your email asking to reschedule. I think BH45 got their interview changed to coincide with the medical in Vancouver. I'd send them a message if you can't find the post or to get some help with rescheduling this. I didn't reschedule my interview. I just asked for a specific date that was well beyong when they were giving interviews.

I'm sure the Consulate will try to accomodate you. Let us know!

Well I put URGENT in the subject line. I suppose if I don't hear anything soon then I could email them again with a different subject line. I'm thinking of calling the 1-900 number they have for appointments, but man, they charge $1.89 a minute!

We managed to reschedule ours in Montreal without a problem. Although, it took almost a week for them to get back to us. (they didnt give us our rescheduled date untill the day we were supposed to be at the interview!)
