My wife called. Hers is done and mine is still in progress. This makes me worried, I thought they processed group apps together?
Can you please share the number your wife called and possible IVR combination .... I have been trying to contact them but always end up holding for 30 mins in vain.
 
Received an update today (August 30), with Background verification marked complete as of August 28.

I had previously called IRCC August 5, The agent had confirmed then that criminality had passed, and security was in progress then.

No, I am guessing it will update in a few days because tracker is always behind but agent gets to see the changes first.
Wife’s BG was marked completed today and mine’s still in progress. Any updates on your case? I also assumed group applications are processed together.

Actually saw a horror story related to this recently, https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-i...icaiton-citizenship-application-delay.873842/ (wife is ready for oath but it's been over a year without one being scheduled, husband is stuck with background in progress, and the fact that the husband's background is in progress is likely why the wife isn't getting her oath yet)
