What does it mean when the eVisa status changes from 'pending document check' to 'pending approval'?

When the eVisa status changes from 'pending document check' to 'pending approval,' it generally indicates that the application is being processed and that no further documentation should be required. However, experiences vary depending on the embassy; some applicants have reported being asked for additional documents even at this stage.
