I have not heard this before. Who informed you that the FAA did not accept? Normally recurrent training is signed off at the TRTO and is produced on request. Was the paperwork sent to your old company as they were the account holder? if you have a new type rating issued it requires a new licence issue, there has never been a requirement to "fly the aircraft" as the initial was performed on a FFS and the rules of 61.58 and PIC check still apply, where are you getting your information from?
