Email UKBA on 22/1/13 asking if my application is still processing or has it been finalized. Got a response today saying "Having looked at our electronic records, you should be due to receive a letter within the next 14 to 21 days" Does this mean my application is finished process and the letter soon arrive or they still processing my application. Any opinion will be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys
