Can I use FHA more than once?
Yes. There is no lifetime limit on FHA loans. The rule is that FHA is for primary residences, so as long as you are buying a new primary, you can use FHA again.
What this actually means.
Most borrowers can only have one FHA loan at a time. Limited exceptions exist — relocation for work, family-size increase, exiting joint ownership, or non-occupant co-signer scenarios — but the default rule is one FHA at a time.
Where this can move.
FHA program rules can change, lender overlays vary, and your specific file (credit, income, property, occupancy) drives the actual answer.
