When it becomes dead. Once the conditions are established that make recovery by K legal, it stays legal, doesn't expire.
Your use of "no longer" suggests you have in mind NFL rules, where they made a rule change about 20 years ago and worded it historically (and dumbly), saying of the free kick following a fair catch, "This is no longer a free kick ball....", going on to say that K can't recover unless first touched by R.
