If my work permit is still valid, can it be said that i had also a valid LMO / LMIA?

The expiry date on LMO is "apply for work permit no later than", and is also stated on the LMO approval that the work permit being applied is for a job till 3 years after. I applied for work permit within the allowed period and got it.

So the "opinion" in the LMO (Labor Market Opinion), approved me to work for three years. As of now, work permit is still more than one year valid.

Am i still required to get a new LMO/LMIA in the Express Entry System? My opinion is ; the validity of the LMO/LMIA is the same as the work permit.

Your thoughts.. Thanks

To get 600 points, you need a valid LMIA.

LMO doesn't count.
