Need convert full license to faa type rating?

G'day,

I am a casa cpl/ir holder and am considering to get faa a320 type rating.
I would like to ask a question to faa B737 or A320 type rated pilots
who attended your type rating course with ICAO cpl/ir (non-FAA).

Question1.
Before attending type rating course, do I have to convert to FAA CPL/IR?

Some schools said that I need to convert to FAA CPL/IR, other school said that FAA PPL/IR is OK
to get the type rating.......
I have no idea which school I should trust...

Anyway I have no intension to fly in USA. I need just a type rating.
I would be appreciate if you could give me some advice or stories of FAA type rating. Maybe I should choose Canadian Type rating..

Have a nice day.
