Make sure you're not getting SIC type rating and type rating with PIC limitations confused. An SIC allows you to act as ONLY as SIC until appropriate training and checkride takes place for a PIC rating. A PIC type with a PIC limitation is different.
When I got my first PIC type there was a limitation indicating that I could only exercise my PIC privileges when flying with another PIC typed pilot. In order to have that limitation removed I flew our empty legs left seat with a qualified captain. After min 25hrs made an appointment with the FSDO with a new 8710 and was issued a full type without any further training events.
