I may have misread your question.
I did my PC check here in the USA with a US Airline therefore there was only paperwork to fill out in order to get the SIC on my license.
While I was at the FSDO though I did ask about type ratings on a foreign license and if they can be transfered to a FAA License and I was told it could be done. The inspector said she would have to get out the book and look it up though to get the official answer
