Lys01 applied on May 28, 2025 (inland) and already had a Final Decision on August 12, 2025, with COPR showing the next day. JanJJ, who applied in February 2025, now has a “Final Decision” date in their account as of August 7, 2025. Clearly, recent inland applicants are getting decisions much faster than estimated the 6-month wait you mentioned.
However I am preparing myself for almost worst case scenario (6 months, or by February 2026) or absolute worst case (February 2027.. really hoping and praying it doesn't go there). I want it ASAP

It depends on the country you're from, whether you're a spouse or a common-law applicant. Likely, a Jordanian nationality will take longer, as the IRCC won't have access to the confidential data it would have from one of the Five Eyes countries. They will only share the information upon request

Some pple apply under Inland Family Class which is different from SCLPC..hence the faster timeline. Theirs is generally faster
