Hi, question. 

Our DTV application went from Pending documents check to pending approval. Applied, Oct 3rd, Oct 10th pending approval, and now 12 days later, after I called, they changed it back to Pending document check. 

Whats going on. It feels like they just forgot about it, and now its going back into the entire system again? Does this mean we have to wait another 20 days, or nobody has a clue whats going on behind the scenes?

Update: We got approved a day later!

Answer summary

The user's DTV visa application experienced a status change from 'Pending approval' back to 'Pending documents check', causing concern about delays. After an update, the user reported a successful approval the following day.

If your proposed/intended travel date is sometime in the future they may have put your application on the back burner, while concentrating on more urgent applications.
