difference between 'where are you living' and 'where do you live'

Dear teachers,

If someone asks me "Where are you living?", he is asking me 'where do I live right now'. Is this correct?

Then, can you please tell me what it means by asking 'where do you live?'?

Thanks in advance!

It means "Where is your permanent home?" It may be the same place as where you are living but it might not, if you are working or studying away from home for example.
