Answer summary
After submitting your visa application and requested documents, a status change to 'pending approval' indicates that your application is being reviewed by an immigration officer. It means that the documents provided have passed initial checks, but further evaluation by a senior officer is required before a decision is made. This can imply that all submitted documents are satisfactory at this stage, but final approval is still pending.

I'm stuck in a same/ similar situation. It means that the First Level officer found your documents to be fine and now it's in the court of the Senior Officer for approval. All the best.

1. Requested whole passport page on 28 Nov
2. Now Bank Statement highlighting the income Dec 1
Every time you uploaded, it changed back to pending document check and then pending approval. I am also waiting as well. Applied on Nov 18.

The way it was explained to me is the document check is just a check that you have provided the required documents and they look to contain all necessary information. If not they will request additional documentation. This is just a generic check. After this It is then sent to an immigration officer who will assess your application and provide approval or not (Pending Approval).

It looks likes 1 application is pending approval.
How to explain: you uploaded documents to apply for a visa and made a payment, now all documents are at the Embassy it goes to the staff member authorized to issue the visa.
BUT before he/she issue the visa they check all documents and that period is called pending approval.
