Is my application on hold because of my wife's application?

My wife and I applied together in July 2023. We did our tests during the same time period. Fast forward to Sept 2024, my application shows the citizenship ceremony has not started (all 5 items are green) while my wife's application shows background verification and prohibition in progress. Is my application on hold while they are processing my wife's application? It's been 4 months and I still have not received the oath ceremony.

If you applied as a family, you're supposed to have your oath ceremony together, so yes, as long as your wife's application isn't finalized, you won't get your oath either...
If you want to be done with it without waiting, you can ask IRCC to separate the application. Call the or send a webform in that case.
