Deepak,

It seems that you applied for this 'joinnt' procedure and you will get a decision for both residence and work simultaneously. So it means you must wait for it.

There was an option to apply separately for work permit but then your stay legality would have to be take care of anyway. Anyways, even work permits take long time nowadays...

Thank you so much
Much appreciate
