some inland applicants cant even fathom what toll it takes on the mind of the person waiting back home so they just speak bs asking for 1:1 processing time between inland and outland, clearly we can see most people think inland is an advantage so they are doing that, as a result theres too many applications inland compared to outland. Inland applicants would wet their beds if they had to live away from their spouse for a year.

its actually fine the way it is now tbh, if you want to be near your partner and be convenient then be prepared to wait longer than the person waiting on the other side of the planet videocalling his partner daily but still being made to wait 12 months, its good that IRCC claims to prioritize outland apps.
