Usually not the way conventional PMI is removed. On most low-down FHA loans, annual MIP lasts for the life of the loan. The practical ways to stop paying it are reaching the 11-year mark (when you put 10%+ down) or refinancing into a conventional loan.

There is no magic “call the servicer at 20% equity” button on most FHA loans.

Dropping MIP is only a win if the new loan is cheaper over your timeline.

A refinance to escape MIP should be intentional — not automatic.

Clear math first — paperwork second.
