Oath Ceremony was scheduled!

No, you are the definition of someone who has failed to file a tax return. Tax returns are due April 15th of every year. Everybody knows that. If you didn't file by April 15th every year or get an extension from the IRS, you have failed to file your tax return.
 
That has nothing to do with it. One of the requirements of being eligible for US citizenship is to file yearly tax returns with the IRS. What you owed or owed to you or how much refund is a separate issue. 
 
No, you have to choose "yes". Otherwise, it would be misrepresentation.
 
That's wrong. Still have to file taxes my friend. 
 
You seem to be hung up on "they owe me money, I don't owe them". That is secondary. The primary consideration is if you file or not. That is considered part of "good moral character" to become a US citizen.

We're in Austin and also waiting. Interview was Oct 30th.

Our Interview is scheduled!

To report back: I had my combo interview on July 11th at the Washington DC field office. First of, I thought my interview was at 9:30, and I was late and arrived at 9:40.. Once I got there, I found out that my interview was actually at 9:20 and I missed the call.  I was told to wait some more, and they would try to fit me in. When it was finally my turn again (at around 11am), the officer said they had to do I-751 and N-400 separately, and I wouldn't know if I could have my N400 interview until I was approved for i-751 by the first interviewer...  Well this was different than what I read here from others' combo interview experiences.  Anyways, it's fine.. So we started and she asked the standard questions from the i-751 application form.  I didn't bring any supporting materials as the N-400 interview notification didn't ask for anything other than my husband and my passports/IDs.  But since I just got back from a trip the day before the interview, I was a bit of a mess that day.. I brought my old expired passport, instead of the new one (so she asked for my driver's license instead).  I also told her the wrong year for the date of our marriage (I said 2016, while it should be 2015... 2016 is the year that GC was issued). It also turned out that in the application form, I mistakenly signed in the place where the petitioner (my husband) should have signed... The interviewer had a serious face, didn't smile much, but she didn't make a fuss about it and just told my husband to sign at the right place on the application form, which was very nice of her.  The interviewer also asked us if we brought any new evidence. In response, I told her that we purchased a new house together, but we hadn't received the deed in the mail yet, so all we had was some mortgage document... We also had joint tax returns from the last year -- I told her that they should be within the N-400 application; For the newest 2018 joint tax returns, it was in my dropbox and I didn't have it printed out... She said she would check the N-400 application for the tax return, and that's it.  At the end of the interview, we were told to wait in the waiting room for the decision to be made. my husband asked me why I said we married in 2016, instead of 2015.  Only then I realized that I gave the wrong answer and started panicking... After 10 min or so, the officer came back out and told us that I was approved.  I told her that I accidentally told her the wrong year of our marriage, and she laughed and said it was ok. Afterwards we went back to wait for another 10 min,  a different officer called my name, who was a super cheerful lady. She told my husband to go grab lunch while I had my N400 interview.  That interview was pleasant and I was approved on the spot within 10 min. And that completes my journey here! Sorry about the long story -- I had a potato brain that day and it still went through smoothly! I thought I should share. Thanks and good luck!

New Card being produced! Finally!

This happened for us after biometric on the new site but not the old site. It still can't load any details. 

We did it 2 weeks ago. Pictures and fingerprints. In and out in 5 minutes. Was hoping for an approval last week but no such luck.

Sigh, week is more than halfway done and still nothing.  Was hoping the biometric appointment was all that was keeping us from being approved. 

What is the link to the old website?

That's awesome! Did you case update in the app or the new USCIS website? The website updated for the first time since Jan 2018 over the weekend to say that they got our fingerprints. 

I did fingerprints last Thursday and got my card delivered to me this past Friday. Hope you see the same kind of fast turn around!

We did fingerprints Friday and feel like approval is coming next week!

#######, just got a letter for a biometric appointment for next week. USCIS sent us a letter last year that they were going to reuse old biometrics. What a dumpster fire.

You can work however you Greencard is no longer a class A document. It becomes a class C document so make sure your Driver's license isn't going to expire anytime soon. As long as you have a US ID or driver's license (Class B) and your Greencard and extension letter (Class C) then you're fine.

You were not arrested. They just sent you to secondary inspection because they needed more time for whatever reasons. It's no big deal. I've been asked to secondary inspection a couple time. There is no need to avoid travel because of this. That's crazy
 

I have not changed anything since I received that they would be reused.  I called us and they told me that everything is fine.  when they sent you that letter?
February 2019 this year 

Oh look! A new thread that I can be disappointed with LOL! 

I got the same 2 weeks ago and just got my biometrics taken this past Thursday. Someone in the April 2018 thread did as well and got approved 2 days after biometrics so I'm hoping we see similar progress on our cases.

Im just received my approval notice today. I hope my card will be in my mail box after 2-3 days. God bless all you guys who are still waiting for this !

Man, %72 of Cali files from Feb 2018 are approved? I know VJ is a small sample size but still.

This is what I sent to my wife's HR Dept and it cleared things up. You need the expired Greencard, extension letter and a government ID like a driver's license. 
 
 
I have attached chapter 7.1 from the USCIS Hanbook for Employers (M-274) that verifies the documents she has submitted are sufficient for employment. The entire handbook is here: https://www.uscis.gov/i-9-central/handbook-employers-m-274
 
The most relevant portions are here:
 
Employees must be allowed to choose which document(s) they will present from the Lists of Acceptable Documents. You cannot specify which document(s) an employee must present. Employees who attest to being an LPR in Section 1 may choose to present a List A document (such as a Permanent Resident Card, Form I-551) or a List B and List C document combination
 
The combination of an expired Permanent Resident Card and a Form I-797, Notice of Action, that indicates that the card is valid for an additional year, is an acceptable List C evidence of employment authorization for one year as indicated on Form I-797. At the end of the one-year period, you must reverify.
So the combination of her unexpired Texas driver’s license (Type B document) and the Greencard + Extension Letter (Type C) satisfy the requirements of the employment eligibility. The USCIS is really backed up so every single person who has a marriage green card gets one of these letters while the case is processed.
