Since?

In the sense of prescriptive grammar,
'since' can take the perfect continuous, is it right?
i.e. He has been living here since 1994.
I just need to confirm it because I just found the counter judgement about this exmaple as false (though that resource is not much qualified,anyway.)

The present continuous is fine with "since": It has been raining since five o'clock. CB
