Anything is possible (almost). You can keep watching the dashboard for an earlier date BUT remember this once you see a earlier date you have to cancel your current appointment THEN hope you are fast enough to grab the earlier date before someone else takes it. You could lose both.

hi all, am i suppose to see a calendar page of open dates? this is all i see. i don't see any calendar screens like i've seen others post. i'm confused. it seems like i just need to wait until an appointment shows up on the home page and then i click on it? we just paid the K2 VISA yesterday but paid the K1 VISA fee about 3 days ago. any help would be appreciated. thanks.

On your first screen you posted at the top, there are no available dates showing to the left. Do not click continue until you see available dates. It will show up in a blue box right below where it says logout, and it will say FIRST AVAILABLE APPOINTMENT ......followed by the date.

You will only see a calender on the appointment page IF there is at least one available appointment.

You have asked this question in a variety of existing topics, why not just start a new topic with your question, you will get better responses.

You are IR1/CR1, so I suppose NVC sets your interview date, correct? I suppose patience is a virtue in your case.
