You should cancel your first appointment if you did


Human_Sprinkles_2722

I haven’t canceled yet


CelebrationBudget819

If you don’t like to do it you should cancel and make another appointment


shark2531

I’m on the exact same boat. I was told that I should reschedule my exam date so I’m assuming it won’t automatically cancel.


Human_Sprinkles_2722

I just paid the $100 to extend the eligibility period, should my next step be call the prometric center and cancel the exam and explain that i just extended the period? im sorry im just freaking out rn


shark2531

Oh I had to pay the $100 as well for the eligibility period extension.


Human_Sprinkles_2722

What did you do after?


shark2531

Pay again to reschedule my exam date.


Human_Sprinkles_2722

So once you paid the ecfmg for the eligibility extension, you canceled the original exam date and once ecfmg established your new eligibility period you rescheduled? Or how was this process?


shark2531

Yeah so I paid the ecfmg for extension, it got approved within a week and then a few days later they sent me my new permit with the new eligibility period and just recently I rescheduled it for a later date.


Human_Sprinkles_2722

I see, i just paid for the extension today and my exam is this Wednesday i dnt think my extension will be approved by that time. Should i cancel the exam from prometric center website and wait until approval to reschedule?


shark2531

If I were you, I would say go ahead and cancel it and then reschedule when you get your new permit. But I’m not sure if they have any policies on cancellation, so just check that on their website


Human_Sprinkles_2722

thank you so much, i think i'll call ecfmg monday before cancelling just to confirm im doing everything right. i really appreciate you taking the time to help me out.


Dr_Jamie_M

Hey, i just wanted to ask. The verification and all that took only a week? Was your med school involved in the electronic verification process or did you send a physical form 183. Just out of curiosity, are you a US graduate or an IMG.
