The problem is that BFR's and IFR currency are PIC-specific, IIRC
If you are concerned about the BFR for 121 flying...you do not need a BFR for that, you just need to complete the specified 121 initial and recurrent training.
If you need the BFR for GA flying, it will be better if you have a traditional one in writing. Clubs and FBO's may not buy into it otherwise. You can probably get your IOE check airman to sign your logbook for a regular 91 BFR...just make sure he is a CFI! If not, it doesn't count outside of 121 operations.

I don't have the regs in front of me, but I'm not sure an SIC 121 checkride counts as a BFR if it is not a type ride. If you get a an SIC type out of it, then it would certainly count. If not, better read the regs carefully.

If SIC isn't a rating, its certainly an operating privilege.
14 CFR 61.56
(d) A person who has, within the period specified in paragraph (c) of this section, passed a pilot proficiency check conducted by an examiner, an approved pilot check airman, or a U.S. Armed Force, for a pilot certificate, rating, or operating privilege need not accomplish the flight review required by this section.

I HAVE A CURRENT ICAO ATPL but not recent on my FAA CPL ME IR. I need a BFR COMBINED WITH INSTRUMENT CURRENCY. Any help where I can get this done cheaply.I also need to access a nearby FSDO to where I will train.Will appreciate a PM from anyone knowledgable. I have not used my FAA since 1997.
Which are generally the states that would be least expensive for training and accomodation?

Non-coastal states are typically cheaper than the coastal areas. Sheble and Prairie Air Service come to mind off the top of my head. You could also check out ATP flight schools...they have branches everywhere.

Same thing with CFI checkrides...since they are not checkrides for a PILOT certificate they don't count as a BFR. Just get the CFI to sign off a BFR when he signs you off for the checkride.
