    Is moving/will move
    Message from lukaznachi posted on 21-03-2016 at 15:27:22 (D | E | F)
    Hello.
    He is moving to America next year.
    or
    He will move to America next year.
    Why? Can you explain please?
    P.S. I think it's the first one.
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    Compare:
    I am swimming tonight. I am just mentioning what I usually do on Monday-nights.
    I am going to swim tonight: It is a near future and also a project.
    I will swim tonight, not tomorrow night. Pure future plus a touch of expression of my will, my decision.

    In your example, the simple future is the more classical of the two. Next year sounds a bit too long for "he is moving" but it could be said.
