Let’s Look at The Big Picture for the Perfect Tenses!
The three perfect tenses in English are the three verb tenses which show action
already completed but relates to the present, past or future. (The word perfect
literally means "made complete" or "completely done.")
They are formed by the appropriate tense of the verb:
to have plus the past participle of the verb. have/has/had/ + PP
Present Perfect: I have seen it. (have + PP)
(Present tense of to have plus participle. Action is completed with respect to the
present.)
Past Perfect: I had seen it. (had + PP)
(Past tense of to have plus participle. Action is completed with respect to the past.)
Future Perfect: I will have seen it. (will have + PP) (Future tense of to have
plus participle. Action is completed with respect to the future.)
