Hi!

I have 9 years of professional work experience with multiple employers, as well as being self-employed couple of times.
But I'm missing an formal education, how much would the lack of degree affect my possibility to immigrate to Canada?

I don't yet have a work offer, but we can assume that I will get an offer before I will even start thinking immigration seriously.

1. You may be able to get a work permit, but extremely difficult as most postings would require a degree.
2. Without a degree, it is unlikely you would get sufficient points to qualify for PR under Express Entry.
