It depends on where the manga is. Thing is as soon as production of an anime starts of a manga that isn't even finished yet, you'll get issues of continuity.
If the anime starts catching up with the manga, they'll either have to cut it short or start making episodes that count as fillers because it ain't part of the original story. Or make up an entirely different orginal story. The first series of Fullmetal Alchemist comes to mind.
From what I've seen it's not uncommon to do half a season and then continue later on.
Half a season being around 12 episodes.
Which is why you see so many ridiculous fillers in Naruto and flashbacks.
