Adding to zondaracer:

FAA rules on time logging time are quite different, you will have to go through your logbook and add them up in the FAA way. In particular, they will want cross-country and Solo times added up separately for their forms, which you would not log separately in EASA-land.

- Solo means alone in the aircraft, and implies PIC

- Cross country means a flight with a landing at least 50NM (straight line distance) away from the place you started

- PIC, in addition to the obvious, also includes all training if you are rated for the aircraft and you are actually flying the thing [only the aircraft rating is required, nothing else]

Also check all the other CPL prerequisites in detail. For example, the 300 NM cross-country flight must be done SOLO. See 61.129 for the list.
