Does a pending visa application mean it is likely to be approved?
Does pending approval means the visa is gonna get approved for sure ?
Answer summary
The term 'pending approval' does not guarantee that a visa will be approved, but many users indicate that it often leads to approval. Experiences vary, and inquiries were made regarding whether the application was for an LTR visa or others. It was suggested to contact the embassy for clarity, emphasizing that while pending status typically leans towards a positive outcome, there are no guarantees.

Ok my guess is you would have heard from them if something wasn’t right or they needed more information. No guarantee as each embassy has their own procedures.Activity
