Future Perfect

The future perfect is used to talk about an action that will be finished at a specified time in the future. It is often used in conjunction with time expressions such as 'By (the end of the year)...'   'By the time (he finishes work)...'  'Within the next (six months)...' or  'On (1st February)...) The future perfect is formed by adding the modal 'will' to the auxiliary 'have', and a verb past participle:

• She will have finished work before eight o'clock.

• She will have arrived in Paris by the time I finish work.

• On April 25th I will have worked here for 20 years.

• We're late! The film will have finished before we get to the cinema!

It is often possible to use the simple future instead of the future perfect, but the simple future does not emphasize the completion of an action.
