A second period of 4 months within which the Region and the Immigration Office must take a decision on the single application. This second deadline may be extended by the Region, or by the Immigration Office, in exceptional circumstances related to the complexity of the application.
If the Region and the Immigration Office do not make any negative decision within the 4-month deadline, potentially extended, the residence and work authorisations will be considered as being granted.
The Immigration Office will inform the applicant with an Annex 47. The Immigration Office will also inform the employer and the municipal administration, or the Belgian diplomatic or consular post indicated in the single application.

WP was issued on February 22nd, but I was notified on February 28th!
Hope it helps
@Ashley Yoo it has been extended in 22 december 2022 due to the complexity of the demand " according to the Imigration office " , the only issue is how long would that extention will take , my employer told me that they would only extend it only once but he didn't know the duration of the extention
@Zack Anayaro dear zack, did the immigration office give you any informatian why this take too much time ? (İ mean why it takes more than four months) will you go single or with your family? İ wonder because i will go single but almost five months passed but i didnt recived my single permit.
@Fidato K

-@dounianachit1999
This is very dangerous, and if the authorities find out, they might flag you and disqualify you from any future work permit. So I recommend waiting, man. Do not make such a silly mistake.
According to my employer, he was very cautious about it.
@dounianachit1999
This is an English speaking forum. Please write in English.
I think it's not a problem if the contract is made in your country (I assume it's Morocco in your case).
@nisrinechelkha
Good morning,
Of course,
So bad news for Moroccans and Turks is that the minimum to obtain a single permit is no longer 4 weeks but is increased to 8 weeks.

@dounianachit1999
Thanks!
I think that it’s 8 weeks now from the moment that the WP was issued.
Good luck 😊
