PLEASE HELP: I want to apply for Canadian immigration. But I am just confused on the class I should apply for. Please kindly advise me. I studied Biology/Chemistry in the University. I live in Africa. And since I graduated, I have not been able to secure a job. To survive, I opened a photographic studio which have really helped me in paying my bills. Moreso, I am still single.
However, having gone through the CIC website, I couldn't trace which class I should apply for considering I have not worked with any company since I left school. And I am single.
Please I will appreciate if could help to advice me on the class I should apply for, to permanently immigrate to canada.
Moreover, If you could help to give me the possible link of some affordable and honest immigration lawyers to handle my case, I will appreciate. Thanks for your prompt replies.

Hi,
There r 6 different ways to immigrate to canada. As of now however, u seem to fit only in the Class-4,
Business Immigration, 'coz u haven't any work experience yet - to fit in the (1)FSW, (2)QSW, (3)CEC or (5)PNP classes. All which is meant for experienced ppl.
Have a look@what the CIC says: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.asp
Immigrating to Canada
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/index.asp
If you want to immigrate to Canada, there are a few different ways to apply. You will need to decide which immigration program will work best for you and your family. Find out about the requirements and the steps to apply in each category:
1. Skilled workers and professionals
For people who want to settle and work in Canada (outside of Quebec)
2. Quebec-selected skilled workers
For people selected by the Quebec government to settle and work in Quebec
3. Canadian Experience Class
For people who have recent Canadian work experience or have graduated and recently worked in Canada
4. Investors, entrepreneurs and self-employed people
For people who want to start a business in Canada
5. Provincial nominees
One of Canada’s provinces or territories can nominate you to settle and work there
6. Sponsoring your family
How to sponsor a family member to join you here if you are a permanent resident or a Canadian citizen
However, for the business immigration u'd require substantial investments ($400K+, direct transfer to Canada), besides u have to strongly demonstrate your business acumen & experience. I'm not sure u have it in u, yet.
Thus, pretty much the doors r closed as yet for u. Give it a try after min 1yr of experience in your field of work, while@your homeland. Then u can apply under (1)FSW or (2)QSW [whichever is applicable to u], which r the two most popular way of immigrating. And costs way lesser.
As for your 2nd question on an affordable & prominent consultant - plz note that the host of this very website,
Mr. David Cohen, is quite reputed. U can safely try him/his organization.
Good luck!
