If you submitted fingerprints before they are only valid for a year, so you will probably be required to submit fingerprints again.
It appears that online applications are processed in a different system, even the test invites are coming from different emails addresses than the ones used to send invitations to paper applications. Online are all applying individually, they are probably considered routine applications (from 18-54 years old, no representative, no kids, etc), therefore the review is quicker. I remember the same happened in 2014-2015 when they changed the PR application process (from paper to Express entry) there was a backlog from those that had applied before 2015 (paper), it took a while to clear that up.
Hope you get good news soon.
Today I got my oath invite! After 23 months of waiting finally getting close to the finish line
