Grammar:
Present perfect with adverbs of time: ever, never, already, yet
El presente perfecto es un tiempo verbal en el idioma inglés que narra
hechos que han comenzado en un momento específico en el pasado
pero que siguen teniendo vigencia en el presente. En este sentido,
contrasta con el pasado simple, que se usa para hacer referencia a
acciones que tuvieron lugar en el pasado, es decir comenzaron y
terminaron en el pasado y ya no tienen ninguna conexión con el
presente, como en los siguientes ejemplos:

 Presente perfecto:  I have been married for two years 

Yo he estado casado por dos años.

 Pasado simple:  I was married for two years 

Yo estuve casado por dos años.
La estructura básica del presente perfecto es:

Sujeto + auxiliar HAVE + pasado participio + complemento.

Auxiliar HAVE:
Para este tiempo verbal es necesario siempre utilizar el auxiliar HAVE.
En este contexto, este auxiliar no significa TENER sino HABER.
