The present perfect is used: Настоящее совершенное время используется:

• To describe an action which started in the past and continues up to the present, especially with state verbs, e.g. know, have, like, be, etc. Для описания действия, которое началось в прошлом и продолжается до настоящего времени, особенно с глаголами состояния, например знать, иметь, нравиться, быть и т.д.

I have known Mark for ten years. — Я знаю Марка уже десять лет.
We have been in this class since we were 7 years old. – Мы учимся в этом классе с семи лет.

• To describe an action which happened at an unstated time in the past. The action is more important than the exact time. Для описания действия, которое произошло в неустановленное время в прошлом. Действие важнее точного времени.

I have never done skateboarding. – Я никогда не катался на скейтборде.

• To describe an action within a time period which has not yet finished at the moment of speaking, e.g. today, this week, this year, etc. Для описания действия в течение периода времени, который еще не закончился на момент разговора, например, сегодня, на этой неделе, в этом году, и т.д.

Have is strong if it stands alone without a main verb. It is weak in the question form. Have is often contracted (’ve) in statements if it is followed by a main verb.

My school is very far from the place where I live so I have to use public transport to get there. But I’m glad I’m a day student and come home every day. A friend of mine is a boarder and she is often homesick. — Моя школа находится очень далеко от того места, где я живу, поэтому мне приходится пользоваться общественным транспортом, чтобы добраться туда. Но я рада, что я дневной студент и возвращаюсь домой каждый день. Одна из моих подруг пансионер и она часто скучает по дому.
