Occasionally when booking an appointment availability might be scarce. If you are unable to schedule a fast appointment, you can request one by applying for an expedite.
To expedite your embassy appointment, you must first book the nearest available date before you can submit an expedite request for an earlier appointment. Once you have scheduled the nearest available date, go back in to your account and select ‘Request Expedite’. You will be asked to give a reason for the request. It is important that you state which type of J-1 is printed on your DS2019 – eg this will be Intern or Intern/Trainee.
If there is an opportunity to attach a scan of their DS to their expediate request please do.
The embassy will usually respond within 24-48hrs to inform you if the request has been successful.
