EASA CPL and instrument currency
Is is possible to keep current while living in the US?
Or do i have to fly over to Europe once a year for my instrument and every other year for my cpl?

Not only that, do it every 5 years, then you can keep doing it with the local guy. Only after 5 years from the expiry do you need to do it all over again.

i was pretty sure i could to the biannual cpl currency there, not so sure about the instrument part.
I know you cannot train EASA Instrument in the US, but i was not sure about just being current.

The ATO at Fort Pierce as his EASA Instrument rating approval for training in the USA.
Everything can be revalidated/renewed and even trained for initially in the USA.

You don't for a SEP rating you can do it by currency which is 10 hours in the final year and 1 hour with an instructor which I might add is not a check its just an hour dual.
MEP is a check ride which can be combined with a IR MEP.
The flight to do you IR renewal can be used as you 1 hour with an instructor So the IRE can sign you off on MEP, SEP (provided you have the other hours) and IR on the one SPA ME IR in a MEP.
