My chances for a U.S Major with a Green Card

Hi everyone. I and my wife have applied for a Green Card for 2016 and we are supposed to receive results in 2 months.
Speaking hypothetically, if i receive a GC what are my chances to join a U.S. major? If you join one, do you start with the smallest aircraft they have or does you prior experience is counted somewhere?(like if you have hours on B737NG or B777 do you start from 737 no matter what?)
And the last question is; how much would it cost to me to get an FAA ATP or CPL whichever is necessary conversion with my type rating on it?
I am a turkish citizen and a university graduate of software engineering. I can speak fluent english, german and of course my own language
I have a JAA ATPL with 2600 hours on the type of B737NG and it will be over 3200-3300 until the end of this year. Before that i only had the flight school hours just adequate for an JAA ATPL. 31 years old and married. Pretty good communication skills.
