Hello! I'm trying to get an appointment with the notary at the US Embassy and according to their calendar everything is booked for the foreseeable future. Does anyone have any good ideas for how to get in? I just need to get two forms to get married. I can't get ahold of them via phone or email to find out if I can take a cancellation. Because of corona I can't just walk in so I'm looking for some original thinking.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!! <3

You will have to wait for them to open more appointment time slots. We had to wait a year. The only way to set said appointment is through the same link you posted above

You can try to request an emergency appointment but I don't know if getting married qualifies as an emergency. If you are an EU citizen, it would be faster to go back to your country to have the notarization done. Americans in Egypt are stuck waiting unless they want to travel back to the States for notarized documents. I know it's awful.

You have to email in an emergency appointment. They will respond in 2 days.
