Hi, We use the third form of verb with has/have like: "He has done that" then why we use first form of verb in this sentence : "he has not come yet"? You are dealing with irregular verbs. 'Done' and 'come' are both past participles.

There's no rule that says the third form can't be the same as the first form.

come - came - come
run - ran - run

Sometimes all three forms are the same!

put - put - put

Review your irregular verbs.
