Those status messages doesn’t tell you anything useable about when you get your application approved/rejected.

You have to read the Embassy website thoroughly and take into account the right now is high season for visa applications.

Most Embassy website gives a very thorough information about processing time.

Additional Documents reset the time counting back to 0, at the day the documents are submitted.

Some Embassies process according to travel date ( to the benefit of the applicant) rathed than application date.

You just have to wait patiently.
