Flyah,

Since you also posted about the TSA requirements for a Citation type, I'm guessing you are coming to the US to get a commercial certificate with a Citation type rating. You should be asking the training center what their requirements are as they should know exactly what you need to do and the requirements can vary some between training centers.

That being said, there are TSA requirements, the FAA medical and the knowledge tests for the commercial and for the IR. You can do them in any order but they all have to be completed before the checkride, the TSA stuff before you start training in the aircraft or sim. Per the regs, you have to have a FAA private before you get the commercial so you should check with the training center to see if you need to get a 61.75 private based on your JAA license.
