Answer

In the following years
For the remaining years.
For the rest of time.

It depends on what the context is, you can use both for/in for the first two, depending on the topic. However, we would never say In the rest of time.

Answer

Thanks for the tip. Can I ask under what situation should I use "in" and "for"?

Answer

“in” and “for” don’t have the same meaning. You should use the preposition that fits the meaning!
