The form for the Present Perfect Subjunctive is the required 3-part formula.
The Present Perfect subjunctive is formed in the same way we form the Present Perfect in the Indicative. We need a conjugation of the verb Haber and a past participle. The only difference is that we conjugate Haber in the present Subjunctive.
Haber |
yo |
tú |
él, ella, usted |
nosotros |
ellos, ellas, ustedes |
| haya | hayas | haya | hayamos | hayan |
But we still use the same past participles as we do for the regular present perfect:
| Espero que ellos hayan llegado a tiempo. | I hope that they arrived (have arrived) on time. |
| Siento que el gato de Ana se haya muerto. | I'm sorry that Ana's cat died. |
| Me alegro de que Eric haya ganado el premio este año. | I'm glad that Eric won the prize this year. |
We use the present perfect subjunctive when we want to express a reaction to something that has happened (already).

Subject #1 (indicative verb)
(Expression of emotion or value judgement from the WEIRDO categories) |
This is the conjunction necessary to introduce the subjunctive clause |
Subject #2 + verb in the Present Perfect subjunctive
(something that has happened already in the past)
