Hi! A villager needs to have pinged you to move out, or someone has to have mentioned them wanting to move out, for them to go into boxes, at which point the other person comes to talk to them.

This isn't the right place for this, but you have to do something called "cycling". To cycle, you basically will go forward one day at a time and you'll choose one "safety villager" to talk to (at least 10 times a day). If they do not mention someone moving, go forward to the next day and continue. If not, go see if that villager wants to talk to you (about moving). If you don't want them to move, find them and see if they try to talk to you. If they do not, go forward an hour or two and try again. Hope this helps!

Getting a villager to move isn't foolproof, but there are two methods that I know work.
Method 1: Marty McFly.
Fairly quick (got two unwanted villagers to move in less than 1 hour, go me!) but you run the risk of villagers you like moving. This has never happened to me, but apparently it has happened to other people. You have to be really careful with this one.
Method 2: Ignore the newbie!
This one requires a lot more patience, but it's much more pinpointed and the chances of the villager you WANT to move moving is a lot greater. You can also combine this with time travelling, but you have to open the game and save on every day of the week.
WARNING: This will not work if you've already spoken to them after the greeting. Good news, though! If you create an extra player character and do the above steps, it will work the same, make sure you talk to everyone but the unwanted villager at least twice, however.
Hope this helped!

- First, time travel 2 days forward.
- Second, talk to a villager, it doesn't matter which one, then save/quit.
- Time travel 1 day backward.
- Run around and see if anyone pings you and asks to move. In my experience, 3/4 times someone will ping me. I find that if someone doesn't, it's because I'm ignoring them and so... they don't care to tell me. One day, they just disappear. It's a little spooky.

- When a villager you don't like moves in, only greet them.
- Proceed to completely ignore them for 1 week. The game will realize they are unwanted and they will begin to plan their move.
- Wait 5 days, and they'll be out.
