Question
Until when can one respond Modim DeRabbanan (if it suffices that one is still saying it and the chazzan has not yet finished the blessing) {if possible, source}
Answer
Shalom Rav
From the language of the Gemara, it is clear that as long as the chazzan is reciting the blessing of Modim, one can say 'Modim DeRabbanan' along with him. As it is stated (Sotah 40a), when the shaliach tzibbur says Modim, what do the people say, etc., and there the versions of thanksgiving are brought, which are concentrated in our 'Modim DeRabbanan'.
Source
Sotah 40a.
