Automatically approve specific user role

[spacemind-studio]

Hello, I wrote following function to auto approve users with 'user' role created at registration. However it seems this doesn't fire because users still has status 'pending'. Could you point me to the directon what is wrong?

function sww_approve( $user_id ) {
	$roles = get_userdata( $user_id )->roles;
	if ( 'pending' == pw_new_user_approve()->get_user_status( $user_id ) && in_array( 'user', $roles ) ) {
		pw_new_user_approve()->update_user_status( $user_id, 'approve' );
	}
}
add_action( 'new_user_approve_approve_user', 'sww_approve' );
