The online submittal process clearly hadn't been discussed in this thread and is missing some elements that the by mail submittal process has had time to debug. Had hoped that, since everything was online, things would go lickety split. But, as this submittal went, no.
Primary benefit for me at least was not having to pull all of the material together and go over to an application submittal facility - just make sure that I had the relevant data and photo and off it was submitted online. If they had a way to query the application status after submittal similar to the mail process, that would have been better.
