The Present Perfect Continuous is made by using the present form of the auxiliary verb "have" +past participle of the verb "to be" + -ing form of the main verb ("I have been doing"). To form questions we reverse the order of the pronoun and "have/has" (Have I, Has he...?). This tense is rarely used in English.
