Whom to approach for a new project when HR does not seem interested?

I work in a multi-national IT service company. I have recently acquired a permanent resident visa for Canada. I have six months to land in Canada. I am really happy with my company and would love to continue working with it in Canada as it has offices there.

Now here is my situation: I asked my own supervisor for guidance to find a project in this regard, but she seems reluctant to help me.

A friend of mine who works in HR, told me that there are multiple openings in Canada. He got me in touch with one of the HRs in Canada. I have given him my profile details and resume, but he doesn't seem to be interested. When I dropped him a follow-up e-mail after a fortnight, he responded saying he had accidentally deleted the resume and asked me to re-send.

I am trying to connect with my own HR manager, but he always responds with "I am busy", "In a meeting" etc.

I get the vibe that eventhough there are multiple openings in my domain, the people from HR are just not interested!

If nothing works out I would have to submit my resignation as my company has a three month notice period and I don't want my visa to expire.

What should be the course of action so that I can get a proper response and find a position in another country in my company?
