Mary has beenshopping.The book has been in my locker the whole time.John and Mary have been out all morning. The Millers have been out all morning.The books have been in my locker the whole time.
as per my knowledge of English would have should use with active voice and would have been use with passive voice sentences for ex - 1. had i been there i would have done this . 2.It would have been very nice if had been there.
I have been to Disney Land before.
Has been is correct, since we are talking about the present. We wouldn't use have been since that would go with referees, plural, not referee singular. To use had been, we would be talking about something that happened in the past. For example, last year no referee had been sent a request.
