Depends on if you feel you need one. If your application is going to be quite easy and straightforward then no harm in doing it yourself. My husband and I had a very easy application for Outland that we did ourselves and was approved in three months. (Pre-Covid)

If you feel like your case is going to be quite complicated and you’re not confident you can cover all your bases then it might be worth looking into hiring a consultant.

I'm very well aware that it's still a long way to go, but patience is key I guess. just sucks that the pandemic is making it even worse than it already was

If you do not have any experience(applied Student Visa, Visitor Visa, your own Permanent resident application, or PNP), then go with a professional.

I did myself after asking a bit of consultants. Frankly the hardest part is collecting all docs and organising, which you still end up having to do. So for me wasnt worth the money. But of course some have more money than time and for complicated cases could make sense.

Apart from reading bureaucratic instructions it is not that hard. Forums here are helpful (search before asking questions) at clarifying, there are a few common questions that come up.

Even if you hire a consultant, do your own research too. You are still responsible for all info you submit. Do not trust any consultant who advises you to submit false info.
