Quick question...

I'll shortly become qualified as an FAA CFI/II, with an FAA IR and CPL. I am a UK citizen, but flying wise only hold a UK JAA PPL. I'm having all the usual hassle with Visa's etc to work here in the States, so wondered if I could use my CFI in the UK for conducting BFR's/IPC's and the like?
Would I need a UK CPL in order to get paid doing this, or is it all ok and above board, providing I only fly N-reg airplanes?
I know of some dual-rated guys from a quick internet search to see if there are/were any FAA CFI's in Blighty, but can't seem to find anything specific to being purely FAA rated. The search here on PPrune didn't conjur up any answers either.
Wondered if anyone could shed some light.
Thanks, Spr K retd
