FAA licenses and currencies

Hello,

i have a few questions about licenses in the US

Where can i find an overview of the FAA licenses and currencies (VFR & IFR)?
Do you have to extend your licenses, or do you only have to stay current?

All FAA regulations are online:
http://www.faa.gov

Specifically:

In short, FAA pilot certificates do not have an expiration date (so there's
no need to "extend" the certificate). However, they are only valid in
conjunction with a current medical certificate which do have expiration
dates.

Beyond that, you only have maintain currency per 14 CFR 61.57:

Don't forget the need for the Biennial Flight Review. Gotta have that, too.
