How to submit application - PAPER Based or ONLINE ?

[CanInd1234]

Hi Experts,

I have a very basic question - I am applying for my parent's super visa.

- Shall we submit 'PAPER BASED' or 'ONLINE' ?
- Does 'PAPER based submission' has any benefit over 'ONLINE' ? the only benefit I see in 'Paper based submission' is that I will not have to worry about shrinking/zipping size or reducing the quality of scans..

any other benefit/drawback ?

I know that the question may sound a bit trivial, but when in confusion - it's better to ask

In case you have no real preference between scanning and making PDFs or printing your docs:

Paper:
- you submit your passport together with your application, visa will be stamped ASAP if approved
- if there is a complication in your case, you may not have your passport for a while

Online:
- you can hold on to your passport a bit longer (a benefit or disadvantage, depending on your circumstance)
- you submit your passport when requested, it depends on how promptly you do so, but usually stamping is as quick as 2 business days
