Some Past Participles
 FUTURE PERFECT:
Simple (1)
It's used for actions that will be completed before another
action in the future or a specific time in the future.
Examples:
a) I will have finished my homework
by the time my elder brother arrives.
b) Will you have learned Italian
before our trip to Venice?
Yes, I will / No, I won't
 FUTURE PERFECT:
Simple (2)
We use the future perfect to show that something will continue
until another action in the future.
Examples:
a) Karen will have worked for 50 years
by the time she retires
b) In September, I'll have studied
Economics for 1 year.
c) We'll have been together for 2 years
when she turns 25
 FUTURE PERFECT:
Simple (3)
If we use some conjunctive adverbs as: so, for that reason, given that,
however, as a result, likewise, consequently, then the following
sentence can be expressed using “be going to” , can/may/could/ or
present continuous.
Examples:
a) His mom won’t have returned by 7pm,
consequently he can play a while with his toys.
b) The reports won’t have arrived in June.
So, the project could take longer to be ready.

We use the future perfect continuous to show that something is
going to continue until another action or time in the future.
Examples:

5 years when she moves to London next April
b) Will you have been living together for
long before you get married?
 FUTURE PERFECT:
Continuous (2)
Using the future perfect continuous is a way to show cause
and effect in the future.
Examples:
a) Moises’ Italian will be perfect when he
moves to Pisa next year as he’ll have
been studying it for ten years.
b) I’m not worried about the marathon as
I'll have been running 20 kilometers a day
for several weeks before.
 NOTE

You can also use "be going to" with

the Future Perfect tenses. Example:

by the time I call Nancy
