I think my i130 was approved quickly because I had Global Entry so the Department of Homeland Security had previously checked me as I was on the safe flyer list.

I have an expedite granted on the interview date.

There was a person who posted that they had an interview date in India within about 30 days of their cc.  So hopefully yours will be the same.

I was told by NVC that it is a good that I have an interview expedite for Ho Chi Minh City.  They said that for regular interview dates they are notoriously slow and could have been up to a 3 month wait for  an interview.

Should be an Expedite for India too.. otherwise the person might have got stuck with his i130... most of it is schedules according to priority dates...

 

That's actually good, that you chose the embassy to expedite! the whole process worked well for you! :)

As others have reported after a case is complete, below is what you will see when you check your status online.   It will say At NVC.
When you check the other site, After Applicant Information, it will no longer say paid and will be blank.
I also noticed that even if you have a case complete, the website will not be updated until after midnight.
 
 
U.S. Department of State
IMMIGRANT VISA APPLICATION
At NVC
Immigrant Visa Case Number:  XXXXXXXXXXXX

 

Please follow the instructions you received from the National Visa Center (NVC) that list the six steps you must take before NVC can schedule your visa interview appointment. This includes submitting to NVC various fees, forms and documents. Once NVC has received all the required items, they will let you know if anything is missing or incomplete. You can also find these instructions online at http://nvc.state.gov (English) and http://nvc.state.gov/espanol (Spanish). You will find contact information for NVC at http://nvc.state.gov/ask.
