Hi all- Can someone please explain the difference between paper vs online applications? Is one faster than the other? What are the advantages of one over the other?

I am afraid, my application package is showing delivered to 3050 Wilson Ave, New Waterford instead of Sydney address provided by IRCC.
it took me more than a year to obtain Police clearance certificate from China, and I am too worried if it gets lost due to IRCC redirecting mail.

Does anyone here knows if this happened to other applicants in prior months? as UPS said that the address is changed in November.

mostly single applicants or family without minor are applying online these days... but family with minor in the application package are supposed to apply through paper only. (online hasnt started as yet)

From timeline perspective, see the google sheets to get a fair idea..from past i noticed paper is faster for overall process but online is faster to receive AOR...so not sure if Online is moving faster now.

This is not new, IRCC is redirecting stuff to offices that have the capacity to process applications so no need to worry about anything. you can search re-direct or something similar I have seen a few folks on this forum say the same. with any mail redirect IRCC is the only one that can redirect their mail so nth to worry about, good luck

Hi, We sent out application to of 49 Dorchester Street, SYDNEY, Nova Scotia but the application is delivered at 3050 Wilson Ave, New waterford, NS.
I'm concerned if the UPS has delivered to the wrong address? Can anyone confirm if the "3050 Wilson Ave, New waterford" right address for the IRCC?
Thanks

Same thing happened with me called UPS first they said it was redirected by ircc but then someone from claims called me and said they made a mistake it was not suppose to be delivered at this location i told her that when i called you guys said its done at the request of ircc but the claims department said no its a wrong address so to be honest I’m confused what happened there its only ups who is delivering at this address.

I forgot to mention my wife's middle name in the application and there was a gap of 45 days between old passport and new passport to which we explained but I think it will be returned :(
