Question

i.e., if I?m in the 1st Rakaat, when do I stop, and so on?

Answer

If a person has already commenced with the Sunnat-e-Muakkadah of Dhuhr and the Jamaat commences, then he should make Salaam after two Rakaats and join the Jamaat. And if he already commenced with the third Rakaat, then it is necessary to complete the full four Rakaats. (Bahishti Zewar vol.2 pg.170)
