HI,

Plz, help for N400 what is the best application to be filled which has a faster turnover time. The online application is quicker or the one sent to USCIS by mail

 

Thanks

Online is quicker in terms of your application being received by USCIS instantly.  

Speed of processing largely comes down to how much of a backlog your field office has, and how quickly the background checks are completed.
