relocating is a stressfully job, specially for us because we have little child, I thought  it need less time so I resign from my current job, sold some of my furniture and also I talked to my landlord to deliver the keys, one off my friend get his work permit in 2 weeks in Brussels and I don't know why it takes too long in Flanders.  For getting my visa I also have to book an appointment at VFS in my country and it is full until next month! I am completely confused what should I do!

Yeah it sure is stressful but all we can do is wait unfortunately .. I hope you got the work permit authorization part by now at least? Given its just past 8wks mark.

Based on the others response, its taking 8 wks for work permit recently (for Flanders region) so yours should ideally be given soon. Unless there is further delay .. hopefully not! 
Then another 2-3 wks for the annex 46.

This information is accurate. I was also informed the same by the company that has offered me a job.
My single permit application status:

Region: Flanders
Application Date: 02 August, 2021
Work Permit Authorization Received: 27 September, 2021
Waiting for residence permit: Will update when I receive the entire permit.

UPDATE
Region: Flanders
Application Date: 02 August, 2021
Work Permit Authorization Received: 27 September, 2021
Annexe 46 received: 13th October, 2021

That's great news! It's more or less that same timeline (~8wks work permit and 2-3wks annex46).  Thank you so much for sharing the update

Hello all!

So after the approval of working permit, the next step is the annex right? I mean, when the residence permit is approved, you don't wait for another step, you get your annex 46, and become ready to apply to vfs?

Thank you

Yes

Currently it seems to be taking 8-9 weeks for the work permit in Flanders then another 2-3 weeks for the annex46

submitted 18 August.
Received working permit 20 October.
Waiting for immigration office reply.
don't know how long it will be needed.

From which region you apply and what about your single permit.

I asked about my residence permit from my company and they told me "they had noticed that the government offices slowed down for some reason and it takes them longer to review the applications."

here is my status :
getting email from social security : 6 Aug 2021
work permit : 7 Oct (after 2 months)
residence permit: still waiting
region : Flanders

What is the reason any idea about it.

Right, I did it from abroad and for the first time.
