Hello.. I am a newbie here..

I am a Graphic Designer/Visualizer & Photographer living in India. I do all kinds of publication designs (books and magazines), ad designs, ad campaigns - concept to completion, brand identities, Editorial & Documentary Photography. I am also well experienced in 3D renderings. For the last 2 years I am doing freelancing in Graphic Design and Photography. Before this I was working at an Animation Studio. for about 3 and a half years. I left that job to pursue Creative Designing and Photography which is my passion. Advertising is where I want to really get in and work with creative ad agencies to make crazy ad campaigns..

So thats my story. Now my questions...
1. Am I eligible for Ontario PNP?
2. Is it mandatory that I should have been in a college or university in Ontario before I apply for a PNP?
3. Or Can I apply for Ontario PNP directly from India? just like that.. as an individual who wants to immigrate to Canada.


I went through some internet studies and the first thing they say is that,
I should have a job offer from a Canadian Employer.
But I tried emailing my cv to many firms and ad agencies in Canada for a job. None replied.

4. If I don't have a job offer is there any other ways to immigrate to Canada?
5. Without a job offer is my PNP application eligible?


One more problem which I am facing is..
Some of the employers in Canada say that
"YOU SHOULD HAVE A LEGAL WORK STATUS TO JOIN US"
but...
IMMIGRATION SAYS "YOU SHOULD HAVE A JOB OFFER FROM A CANADIAN EMPLOYER TO APPLY FOR A VISA"..

6. What should I do now?
The employer wont give me job because I dont have a visa or work permit...
The Immigration people wont give me a visa...because I dont have a job offer from a Canadian Employer..


Please advice me. I am a genuine creative artist who is looking forward to work with creative ad agencies and give the best in me to them. I would love to be a in a team of creative professionals and I am really a hard worker and I have a lot of ideas and visualizations going on in my mind to be a successful creative professional . I am not getting a good chance to expose myself. PLEASE HELP...

Any kind of advice about which category I fall in to apply for the Immigration and what are the basic things to be done for that, will be very much helpful to change my life.
 
hi designer, you must have job offer in order to immigrate to Ontario. Other thing is, if you get a job offer from a company, they can get u visa through LMO. So the first thing you gotta do is to find a job in Canada.
