Yeah you should have your visa next week.
Look at it your nomination approval took 6 days. I lodged 3 months ago and still nothing.
As Ken said Melbourne is super fast compared to Parramatta

good luck

Apparently no approval today...
Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
I think approval comes after around 145 days now so as long as you're under 145 days there's nothing to worry about.

Hi All

I emailed Paramatta this week regarding our application and got the usual reply by email " CO not allocated etc. But then today i got a call from the Paramatta office advising that they understand my concern with regards to not yet having approval and CO not yet allocated.
Then advised they are currently allocating & approving applications received on or around 20/1/2010 and as ours was received 16/3/2010 it could be up to 4 to 6 weeks before allocation of CO but then also said this timescale would also really depend on the applications already allocated and if they go to the approval stage without a hitch.

I asked the guy to put the details in an email and this is a copy i received about 5 mins later

Dear xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thank you for your enquiry.

Your application has not been allocated. We are currently allocating
applications that were lodged on 20/01/2010. As your visa was lodged on
16/03/2010, it would take at least 4 - 6 weeks for it to be allocated.

Normally they will tell you when they are sending them. But I would expect them to either be sent as soon as they have your blood results.

It should take a few minutes after they recieve your medicals. After my CO recieved my medicals he decided within the hour. all the best.

Please note that the published service standards for ENS/RSMS cases is 5
months (ETA countries) and 7 months (non-ETA countries). We advise that
clients currently allow up to this amount of time for allocation and
assessment of their visa application.
