Hi everyone!

I am about to apply for Express Entry and wanted to check with y'all if I'm doing it right. At first I was going to ask a lawyer to help me, but a lot of people told me it's not worth it. So here we go:

About me
  • Applying in British Columbia.
  • Has lived in Canada for more than 2 years now.
  • Graduated from Langara College (Certificate).
  • Over 1 year of Canadian work experience on a Post-Graduation Work Permit as a Sound Engineer (NOC: Skill Level B, in the field studied at Langara).
  • Has a foreign Bachelor Degree with its ECA.
  • Has taken both English (CELPIP) and French (TEF) language tests.
  • CRS of 565 so far (I don't have an LMIA since I'm on an Open Work Permit, but am I even LMIA-exempt? Or is it necessary in my case?)
  • No Police Certificate requested yet (I guess I only need them if CIC requires them? If they do, I will need to get them from 4 different countries, so hopefully they don't).
  • Has no Job Seeker Validation yet (but I guess I get it only after I submit my EE profile? Plus do I need it it I'm already working?)
I'm also planning on applying for PNP, can I only do it after I submit my Express Entry profile?

What are your thoughts, recommendations, warnings?
