Hi all,
I started to check about relocation in Canada, and made some online assessment. Results are positive, appear I'm eligible.
Specialized lawyers push me to start immediately preparation of FSW visa application, considering the openings in May.

But I even don't start looking for a job neither I'm I landed in Canada. Does make sense investing immediately? Better starting looking for a job? Potential employers will be more eager to consider my application if I already applied for a VISA?

I would suggest you not to invest in lawyers right now. Just go through this forum and CIC's website to learn as much as you can about the application process and get started on collecting the documents. Once the eligibility criteria is announced in April (that is, the occupation list), then if you are eligible it would make more sense to get lawyer at that point if you really want to. But, if you do your homework, you could apply on your own.
