Thank you TWA884. Good links that I am looking at now.
I'm still unclear about whether I am allowed to book an appointment elsewhere though, somewhere 'not' on my flight itinerary, like Phoenix or Nogales. I'll be in Arizona long enough to get an appointment and drive over there. I'm just not clear whether these appointments need to be carried out 'as you step off the plane, passport in hand' or if they can be carried out any time I am in the US (I'm not a US citizen btw).
thank you again !
Just a my thoughts on your situation. This basically is a restatement of what
mnbp just posted.
You need to look at your travel plans and decide what is the most effective way for you to complete the interview process. If your arrival terminal at JFK is an active EOA location and if you have a decent connection interval (my guess is 3 or more hours), I would try to do an EOA when you get to JFK. I would also see if there is a convenient interview time at Nogales (or any other available interview location within easy driving distance). If you find an interview time available there, I would book that as a backup. This way you will do your interview at JFK if it works out. But you won't need to be stressed about it as you have a backup once you get to your eventual destination. If you do this and compete your interview at JFK, make sure you cancel your interview at the backup location as a courtesy to others looking for available interviews.
