CONGRATULATIONS visa buddy ;-) We (initially) applied about the same time, it's so amazing how quick it has been.

We got ours in June, have to be there by 12th December, so will be going around October time (to Sydney). Enjoy life down under!!!

Hi all, we submitted our 175 visa 10 June. No feedback or co yet although its still very early days. good to see a few are getting sorted quickly. Cant wait to get over. Just to source a job now. Nearly had one sorted on a 475 visa but fell through the other day unfortunately. So on goes the search.

Can I directly e-mail to the assigned CO and inquire the current statues of the application?

If you'd rather have your CO respond to pointless e-mails instead of actually processing your application. You didn't apply that long ago, have some patience!

No. The 25th May isn't that long ago. I wouldn't worry too much.

But there is no harm in front loading it. My CO sent my case directly to security checks and it went fine

Indeed. However as the other poster is from the UK his case is unlikely to be sent for security checks. Form 80 is more often requested from High Risk countries than from Low Risk ones these days.
