  The status that you see in the report is not always correct since the clients send the status at defined intervals and the status may change by the time you are looking at the reports. The reason why it says waiting maintenance window might be because the client still has more updates to install even after the reboot. The client will sometimes need more than one reboot to install all updates in a deployment.
  
  There are several ways to find out if a client is waiting a reboot.
  1. If you logon to the client console, you will see a icon in the task bar with a red arrow that will say that the client needs a reboot.
  2. Check updatesdeployment.log
  3. Check ServiceWindowManager.log
