People say you need a college degree to get a working visa as it is one of the requirements. What is that mean accredited or recognized school? I graduated from a REAL university in my country but how do I know that it is recognized by immigration. Is there a list ? or as long as its real then its good enough ? I have all my transcripts as well.

Yes, you need a bachelor's degree to get a working visa. However for some jobs you can waive this requirement if you have many years of working experience in a particular field.

An accredited school is one that is "officially recognized as meeting the essential requirements, as of academic excellence." You'll have to check but most "REAL universities", as you put it, should be accredited. Requiring accredited schools prevent people from purchasing diplomas from fly-by-night diploma mills.
Is there a list ? or as long as its real then its good enough ? I have all my transcripts as well.
Your school is probably fine but you should ask them if they are accredited. If they are they will tell you. If they won't tell you or they don't know then they are likely not accredited.
