Can anyone tell us the stages? I'm at Processing Pending Document Check (1) and I'm assuming there is a "Submit more documents" and then what? Approved or Denied? TYIA

TLDR : Answer Summary
The visa processing stages after the 'Processing Pending Document Check' can vary. If your documents are sufficient, you may not need to submit more and can proceed to approval. However, if issues are found, you may be required to submit additional documentation, which resets the processing timeline. It's essential to be aware that the progress of your application can heavily depend on the embassy's policies.

Those status’s does not tell anything about where the application is in the proces, can go both ways

Additional documents will turn the clock back to zero.

You should have researched BEFORE applying

Now you can only wait.

If your docs are fine then no request for more docs made go straight to approval. If they find something wrong you can be rejected or given a shorter term visa.
