The present perfect is formed from the present tense of the verb have and the past participleof a verb.
We use the present perfect:
- for something that started in the past and continues in the present:

She has lived in Liverpool all her life.
- when we are talking about our experience up to the present:
I‘ve seen that film before.
I‘ve played the guitar ever since I was a teenager.
He has written three books and he is working on another one.
We often use the adverb ever to talk about experience up to the present:
My last birthday was the worst day I have ever had.
and we use never for the negative form:
Have you ever met George?
Yes, but I‘ve never met his wife.
Have been and have gone
We use have/has been when someone has gone to a place and returned:
A: Where have you been?
B: I‘ve just been out to the supermarket.
A: Have you ever been to San Francisco?
B: No, but I‘ve been to Los Angeles.
But when someone has not returned, we use have/has gone:
