Does my Karaikal address change anything for GST?

Your GSTIN is tied to the state of your principal place of business. A Karaikal address means you are registered under Puducherry (code 34), and inter-state sales are charged as IGST while intra-state sales split into CGST and SGST.

Yes. Once your file is opened, every stage — document check, drafting, filing, query, approval — is visible in your dashboard, and you are notified when the status changes.
