The US Embassy has an online application system and when you complete your online application, you will receive a number that allows you to set up a personal appointment at the embassy that is necessary to complete your visa. These appointments are only scheduled online and the earliest open appointments are not until August! May, June and July appointments are already filled!! Don't wait to do this.
The only way to get an appointment earlier than August is to visit the scheduling webpage, repeatedly, after you've completed the online visa application and printed it out. You will need to do this often if you want to get an appointment before August! The scheduling page shows current appointments that have already been made by others, but it also shows if an appointment has been cancelled. If you are quick, you can choose a cancelled appointment for yourself. This process requires patience, diligence and quickness. Good luck!
