Looking to move from Canada to USA, which visa could I apply for?

I have been interested in moving from Canada to the US for many years however have only attempted to begin the process within the past year or more.
I am currently self employed in Canada, I have worked as a video editor since 2016-2017 and have mainly worked with one US company, and just recently picked up work from a second US company with a few odd jobs here and there, all of them based in the US.
I originally had plans to go to university for film and media but did not follow through with it as I started working instead so my highest education would be a high school diploma.
The first US company I have worked with is willing to take me on as a full time employee under their company and have me relocate to Texas to work with them, during my time with said company I have worked with them daily and my tasks pretty much surpassed just editing and I help with graphic design, marketing, and aiding with management, production etc
The company I am looking to relocate to has already attempted to find employees within the US but none have been able to fill the position with the same level of skill that I provide.

Ove the past year I have attempted to work with a Lawyer but the stopped getting back to me after a phone call where they said it would be impossible for me to obtain a visa. The a second attempt the US company mentioned above reached out to a lawyer on their end, and I believe we attempted to apply for a graphic design H1-B visa. After a few back and forth email they also stopped getting back to us ultimately saying since I did not have a BA I would not qualify.

Are there any visas out there that I could possibly have a chance with or is my lack of BA really that impactful? The company I work with would be willing to sponsor me/hire me under any position as I have a blanket of experience in all fields.

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
