Chase somewhere between 48 and 56 hours
Also, award holds are possible though it seems to be up to the discretion of the agent. Maybe one ticket is ok but not more.

Just another data point..... I transferred 1k points from both Amex and Chase today.... inaugural transfer in both cases.... Amex posted almost instantaneously, will monitor Chase. I've read here on FT that your very first transfer from both Amex and Chase may take some add'l time... doesn't seem to be the case with Amex though.... after the initial Chase transfer posts.... I'll try another to see if it transfers more quickly on subsequent transfers.

There seems to be issues transferring AMEX points to KF currently - this was confirmed by an AMEX representative on the app chat. No timeframe when it will be fixed…. Unfortunate as I was needing the points to grab an award ticket.

Amex HK rewards points to Krisflyer transfer. Done in Jan and Feb 23 (initiate transfer in morning) and both times took exactly about 24hours to show up. One was weekday and other was weekend so it seems like a daily refresh happening at SQ end where miles appear about 9am Sing time

Started a 446k transfer from UR to Krisflyer last night at around 11:30PM EST time. First transfer with a newly created Krisflyer account.
Nervous about saver availability going away and catching 446k miles on fire (or forcing me to transfer a bunch more miles), but will keep everyone updated on timings.

Miles were not there when I went to Singapore website, but logging out and logging in as others have mentioned and they showed up.
So it was between 47 and 48 hours for the transfer to happen. My reward was still available and my family of 4 is booked onto SIN-JFK nonstop next spring.
Thanks all!

Got a "Thanks for making your first transaction with Krisflyer" email just now at 10:40PM Eastern time, Saturday night, which is 10:40AM Singapore time, Sunday.
