Simple present+ because+ present perfect

Hello people,

Is it possible to use a construction in which we can use simple present tense+because+ perfect present tense? For example,

"I do not know much about the issue because I have just arrived in the office."

I have also read somewhere that the word "since" could be used as "because", so if that is true, then can I say

"I do not know much about the issue since I have just arrived in the office."

Thank you for your help.
