Lots of threads about this already. The Online app is a pilot program and therefore they are working out the bugs as they go. It's only been around for a few months so there is no long term data yet. It is not faster. The paper apps are averaging AOR1 in about ~65 days while the online apps are around ~105. The online apps start catching up though once the biometrics and medicals are requested. Beyond that there is little data right now. Extrapolating from what little data there is, the online apps currently in process will likely take only slightly longer than the paper apps submitted at the same time if the current trends hold.

So far the only advantage of online is ability to submit without physically sending by courier large packages (incl between spouse and applicant). Which for many is a big advantage but it's up to you, given that it is a pilot project (read: BETA).
