Indirect spoilers for the ending of XIII-2 in this thread. No direct story references. This affects anyone who has or wants a Final Fantasy XIII character, so please make sure you read this if applicable. If you've finished Final Fantasy XIII-2, you know why Final Fantasy XIII characters become problematic - if you haven't, it's because the story is incomplete. Without revealing the details, I'll say this: the ending is "to be continued", meaning that we can't work from it without making a lot of assumptions. With the nature of the story, particularly the way it ended, that's not something I really want to do.
So, we're going to have to do something a little unusual here. Final Fantasy XIII characters will be accepted on two conditions. The first, that characters are created post-XIII, with no regard for XIII-2 except for small bits of information that early portions of the game give you: things that happened immediately after Cocoon fell and such. The other is that, once XIII-2's story is complete, any owners of a Final Fantasy XIII character profile must be willing to rework their character to fit with the established canon, even if that changes a lot.
If you aren't willing to comply, then please, don't ask for a Final Fantasy XIII character, particularly canons. Characters who died in XIII are fine, as XIII-2's events don't affect them at all. If you have any questions, ask here! Questions posed in this thread are expected to have spoilers, so scroll down at your own risk. Any important answers will be added in this post.

Like the thread says, all characters are to be applied for post-FFXIII without regard for XIII-2's events. I'm going to edit your post, as that's a bit of an unnecessary spoiler for those who haven't played. It won't be a problem to modify her for post-XIII-2 later.

So, if I wanted to apply for Yeul. It'd have to be the Yeul from after Cocoon falls? I couldn't take her from some other timeline in the future?

You -could-, if you could figure out how to do it in a way that makes sense? We've talked about it a lot, mostly in the interest of Noel and the other XIII-2 characters, but we haven't been able to find a way to fit it in. We can't really follow the XIII-2 canon when it very well might end up obsolete after Lightning Returns, unfortunately. That Yeul would probably be the easiest to app, by far, and the most likely to get accepted.

If Lightning Returns makes everything canon, would I be able to switch to a specific Yeul?

Yes! I'm expecting quite a bit of adjusting with the XIII characters once that's out, haha.
