- You can cancel/reschedule online or by calling 1‑866‑891‑4112.
Tips to Score an Earlier Slot
- Check daily around 9:30 am (or 7 am local) — slots (including same-day/next-day) are released then.
- Refresh frequently, use the "Previous" button to pull new times.
- Try rural or suburban offices—they often have more openings.
- Scripts and browser automation (open-source on GitHub) can auto-refresh and snag slots — many users report success .
Common Issues & Workarounds
- Slot taken during booking: high contention—retry or switch offices.
- Site down/maintenance: reportedly recurring; switching browsers or trying another day helped in community reports.
