Aiken, SC asked in Immigration Law for South Carolina

Q: Is there a way to accelerate the date of an appointment at the US Consulate in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico?

We have been working on my Mexican wife's green card. She got an appointment date of April 30th, but her medical exam showed a spot on her lung, and they required tests for TB, which took 10 weeks, taking us past the original interview date. The tests were negative, but now the earliest date the online Consulate's online scheduling page will allow us to enter is November 8th. Is there any way to appeal this and get an earlier date, since we have already waited 9 months?
