I don't know what to think. If there's a commitment then pass DA along tax bill together at the same time, not after.
Trump administration is well know for flaking out on everything, and a commitment from Pence doesn't mean much.
Let's see how the cards are played out by everyone.

DA will go with the budget, not the tax bill, tax bill they will ram through with reconciliation (50 votes required), budget will need 60 since even though budget itself can pass under reconciliation, there's no way to put debt ceiling increase over that.

Yes for citizenship. If you're married to a USC then even 3.
Naturalization via military is a little murky right now since the who bills differ in those sections. RACA has a section says that you can naturalize under INA 328 and 329. DA doesn't. Both have requirements to remove conditions before you can naturalize.
Thing to consider is that under Dream Act most of us will be eligible to be citizens in 5 years from the date the initial application is approved.
