How long does it typically take for a DTV visa application to get approved by the Australian embassy in Canberra?

The author applied for a DTV visa in early July and received a request for additional documentation shortly afterward. After submitting the document, the application's status changed to pending approval, but there has been no subsequent update. The author is unsure whether to contact the embassy or continue waiting, expressing concern about the potential delay, especially since the intended travel date is at the end of August. Comments from the community suggest that the Canberra embassy typically issues visas close to the travel date, and some advise sending a polite email to inquire about the application status.
