JAA or FAA

Hey all, hope this is the right section for this but it's here now so....

My situation is i'm 19, about to finish my CASA atpl theory in july, with a CPL and with very low hours and will most likely be stuck in a study mode for a bit after i finish my course. Now, of the two internationally recognised licenses avalible, which would be more preferred in the big game airlines?
Bare in mind, I cannot get a UK passport, not sure how hard a USA one would be to get these-days. Also moving to one of these countries i would be looking at practically halving the $$ i have saved, so would be very happy to do a corrispondence type course if possible?
Was looking at getting either FAA or JAA atpl theory, and i guess a CPL flight test, if it was worth it.

Any help from anyone would be very much welcome
cheers
