Creating yet another series of 'any news?' , 'it's been so long', 'no letter' or 'no update' threads are not adding any value here. The general rule is that such posts and threads will be locked as they cannot be answered by anyone here
Please Note
1) HO might not even send you a letter of confirmation of your application and the first letter you get is usually for your Biometrics, which could take several weeks.
2) The 8 weeks time frame is pretty much not being kept by the HO. No one here knows why your application is taking so long
3) Complex applications could take up to 8-9 months to decide, so you must be patient and continue to wait until you hear back from HO.
