This should be a easy question, but I didn't find answer from googling. The date format I wan is: Month(letter), Year(numerical). For example, I want: November, 2014. Of course, I can manually achieve this requirement. But I think LaTeX can do better. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Not sure how you are using this macro, but for me it produces the date that I specify in the parameters to the macro:
Code:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{datetime}
\newcommand{\introduction}[3]{%
This is regarding your loan application that was on \formatdate{#1}{#2}{#3}.}%
\begin{document}
\noindent
\introduction{04}{05}{1977}
\end{document}
Ah, a use for the australian language. Its date format is correct, so you can load it as a subsiduary language via babel and then wrap your bibliography in an otherlanguage environment:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[australian,american]{babel}
\usepackage[backend=biber,dateabbrev=false]{biblatex}
\begin{filecontents}{references.bib}
@book{Book,
title = {This is a Title},
author = {Author, Some},
location = {The City},
publisher = {Publisher},
date = 2005,
month = feb,
day = 14,
}
\end{filecontents}
\addbibresource{references.bib}
\begin{document}
\today
Citing \cite{Book}.
\begin{otherlanguage}{australian}
\printbibliography
\end{otherlanguage}
\end{document}
