Contact you local university and ask if the credits will transfer from the university you attended. If you already have your RN status ask the state licensing board if or what you must do to get your license in your state

a degree is favourable if you want to immigrate to the U.S. with a work visa.

I do not think that you need a degree to find work as a nurse in US. There are different level of nursing job. The most important is that you can find such a nursing job. US is shortage of nurses now, and there are agencies recruiting nurses all over the world. Try those agencies and make sure you get a good one so they do not bring you into US for wrong reason. They will help you pass the profession nurse qualification test, and help you with the work permit. I believe they are offering the green card too so to attract people applying. Good luck.
