as soon as i hear or as soon as I've heard?

[erin_jan09]

Hi guys,

Can you please advise which is correct?

When I say:

Please allow me to get back to you as soon as I hear from him.

or

Please allow me to get back to you as soon as I've heard from him.

Thanks a lot!

Both are actually correct since the idea is the action in the "as soon as" clause is completed before another action happens.

However, "...as soon as I hear from him" is much more common than the other one.

Hope this helps! ^^,

hi!

i think that first sentence is right.

I think "Please allow me to get back to you as soon as I hear from him" is the right answer. We use this more as compare to the second one.

"as soon as I've heard from him" in my opinion this is OK.
