it's completely random - nothing to do with online vs paper. My partner and I both had an online application, mine got processed in 5 months and my partner will be taking oath this week after almost 10 months of application dateI am frustrated, no movement at all......what makes me even more frustrated is that online applications are getting processed in two to three months and our paper applications are taking years......My LPP got completed one month back and I have not received oath invite yet
