    SELECT CONVERT(TIME, GETDATE(), 101) will get you the Time from GETDATE(). You’d need to store it in a variable in order for you to use in your comparison. Not elegant, but it works.

    DECLARE @Time1 AS TIME(3)
DECLARE @Time2 AS TIME(3)
SELECT @Time1 = CONVERT(TIME, GETDATE(), 101)

SELECT @Time1;

SELECT @Time2 = CONVERT(TIME, DATEADD(MINUTE, 1, GETDATE()), 101);

SELECT @Time2;

SELECT DATEDIFF(SECOND, @Time1, @Time2)
