Future perfect continuous / positive/negative/interrogative

 

Future perfect progressive tense verbs contain will + have been + verb (ending in -ing). They’re indicating something that will happen in the future. And that “something” will be an ongoing action. For example, “By that time, she will have been working here for two years.

Subject    + will have been + Verb - ing    + time reference + object

(Note: The place of time references in these sentences can vary)

Will     she                have been     living        in Pakistan for ten years by that time?


Negative:

Subject    + will not have been    + Verb- Ing    + object
