Get at least 2 1/2 hrs before your appointment. go to the main gate of the Embassy where the regular applicants make their payments, there you'll go through their security checkups, then you go inside and do another security checkup...then you'll take a ticket, located between windows 12-13, and wait for your number to be call, keep in mind that is only the last two digits of the ticket that are to be called...
Regarding the forms...make sure you have them filled out, signed, and separated. Make sure you only hand out what you are being asked (they lady hat took care of me was respectul, but a little rude). Make sure you have at least two (2) copies of each paperwork you submit. Also, your birth cercificate and the criminal background are apostilled by the entities in Venezuela (this is better explained in the US embassy website), and the four (4) pictures (in Venezuela you'll ask to have VISA size pictures, 5 cm by 5 cm. The lady, after taking all those documents, she will direct you to pay the respective fee, and then you go to the first security check point to get your fingerprints done...
After getting them done, you'll have to go through the second check point, again, and submit a little receipt back to the person who took care of you. Then, you jusy have to WAIT, and WAIT some more... until your name is called and you will have another person interview you. In my case I was with my USC fiance, which I think it helped because she only asked us my basic info (DOB, full name) when did we meet, and how...then asked how many times has my fiance visited me.. and lastly she told us if we were willing to get married within 90 days of my arrival to the US. Then she told me I was approved , which was followed to go to the DHL office outside to send the package.  good luck to you... if you need help or have questions... let us know...
