Does 'Pending Approval' indicate that my visa documents are in order?

Does changing status from ‘Pending Document Check’ to ‘Pending Approval’ mean that documents are in order and no additional documents would be requested? TIA 🙏

TLDR : Answer Summary
Changing the status from 'Pending Document Check' to 'Pending Approval' does not guarantee that all documents are in order. While it indicates that the application has moved to the next phase of review, applicants have reported cases where their visa was denied after reaching 'Pending Approval' due to mistakes in their documentation, such as errors in the passport number or issue date. Therefore, it's important to ensure that all details are correct and to remain patient during the approval process.

Mine was on pending approval and got denied because I put the wrong passport issue date.

It has no meaning. Mine was also changed to pending approval and later it got canceled because I made an error at passport number. Just be patient and see where it goes
