FAA Conversion License

[awitzke]

Quick question, I called TC and they didn't know. Do I need to wait for the stickers to be in my book (CPL/MIFR) before I can apply with the FAA for a conversion license? They require you fill out a form that confirms what licenses you have. But if I don't have the stickers, just the signatures then technically I don't have official license as per TC's computer system, correct?

Looks like you answered your own question.

There is Revision 1 to the original IPL that came into effect earlier this year. There hasn't been a new AC to publish it in the mainstream yet though. The amendment now includes helicopters.
You can find it by googling implementation procedures for licensing on the FAA web site.
I did my heli ATPL a couple weeks ago.
