Hi there,

We've been trying to get an InfoPass Appointment but the request keeps coming back with a 'No appointments available' response. Also, there is no one available there at the physical address to ask. I did read somewhere that if you put in a different Zip code, it will come up with available appointments - I think it was quite an old post and I can't find it now. Does anyone have experience of this or another way of getting a meeting scheduled?

Appreciate any help on this... thanks.

I made an InfoPass appointment for my wife to have her biometrics done earlier than originally scheduled at the Charleston, SC office. There were several available appointments for me to choose from, and we had no issues at all. I'm guessing your office is just very busy, and there are actually no appointments available. Good luck. Hope something works out for you.

Not sure whereabouts you are but going by the local field office you have listed, if you punch in the postcode for West Palm Beach it should bring up the other field offices. Have you tried one of those? I know you're probably looking at a minimum of 2 hours to drive to another but it may be worth it depending on your situation.

Best of luck ... :star:

Yes, my fiance is in West Palm - maybe that's what putting in "another zipcode" meant in which case it would give other alternatives.

thanks for the advice.
