    I guess you have to cancel your mom's appointment inorder to add to your father's appointment. Let us see what others say.

      It cannot be done directly. You cannot add another applicant once the interview is confirmed.
      If you want them to go together, then you need to cancel the appointments then create new one

        You can only add your mom to your dad's appt if there are any openings on nov 30th at the same time as your dad's appointment. I think they allot 10 or so applicants for every 15 minute interval (i.e. 10 applicants for 7:45AM appointments, 10 applicants for 8AM appt, 10 applicants for 8:15AM appt etc). So, there is very very slim chance for an opening to come up in your dad's huddle. If you see an opening for the same date, you may prepone your mom's appointment, but they are not considered as 'joint applicants'. If the interview timings are close enough, you can ask them to go together and if asked they can say that they couldn't get a joint slot and hence took two different slots on the same day. They may be interviewed separately or together.

        But, there is a slim chance for your mom to get an appt on the same day (i.e. separate appt) and very very slim chance for an appt to open up in your dad's huddle so you could add your mom to his application.

        Good luck!!

          Regarding if you can add your mom to dad's application or not, you can go to 'reschedule or cancel appt' link and give all your dad's details and see if you are seeing a link on the bottom like 'click here to add another applicant'. If you can't see this link on the page which shows DS156 and DS157 links, it means that you can not add your mom to your dad's application.

            Pls check with vfs and US consulate. Since you are asking for an appointment for the same family members at the same time slot, there should be some provison.
