As you have 60 days time given by the visa office, if your PP reach them before dead line, it would be fine. Keep the tracking record.

When you put "they say", who is "they"? Is that what was stated in YOUR letter? (60 days)? Anyway, after a first request for something I understand there would be at least one more notification (about being unable to contact you) with a warning about closing the file. So indeed you will be fine!

Nothing to worry about here. As long as it reaches within the time limit set by them.

The only reason they ask you to hurry is because the limit they put on the landing is already fixed for you when your PR was approved and so the sooner you get the passport back, the sooner you can plan on landing.

Good you checked your junk mail. :eek:
