Summary
Follow whether e-filing is open or mandatory; avoid mixing channels.
Short answer: follow whether the authority opens or mandates e-filing. Online systems help tracking and RFEs; paper needs courier proof. Mixing channels risks file confusion.
FAQ
Is online faster approval?
Not necessarily — but process is clearer.
Start online then paper?
Follow system instructions; do not mix on your own.
