Was it your case number that is being transferred or another case number that needs to be canceled and then reissued to your loan?
If it was your case number, it should only take a day or two once the broker who originally had the loan initiates the transfer. If you need to cancel a previously issued case number, it will generally take about 3 days in my experience.

Old thread but I have a similar question and was hoping to get some help.
I have a renovation I did under contract to be sold. The buyer's lender informed me that there is an FHA case number attached to the property. I have owned the property for about 3 months and didn't use financing, so I'm guessing it's either:
a) a mistake or
b) from someone who tried to buy property before me using an FHA loan
Buyer's lender is reaching out to the lender associated with the FHA case number to get more details, but I'm wondering if there are other things I should be doing to make sure this doesn't hold up settlement.
