cant say anything, VFS takes about 6-13 days, online no one is using because people fear that they dont want to experiment on their application. if anyone has applied online recently, please share you experience, this will encourage people like me to apply online.

i decide to not to apply online because online it only asks for limited documents and each attachment should less than 4 mb i think. so i thout i should submit via VFS.

online application doesn't allow us to attach the kagaj-pattar (papers) which we attach thinking that our application is becoming strong, stronger and then when we have finally added 2 inch pile of papers, we feel that now our application is the strongest and cannot be defeated --------LOL

That depends on where you're from. In my country, direct to embassy applications stopped this year. All applications should only be made either online or through VFSs.

average time is 2-4 weeks. so, No one can give you exact idea how much time will it take?
just keep waiting for that much time. Don't worry. Results will be good.. :D hope for the best.
