Default Re: Difference between "It's" and "It is"

no difference, actually. however, it's can mean it has. the meaning of "it's" depends upon the context. if it is "it has" (i mean "it's" = "it has") then the 3rd form of the verb should be used
For eg., it's been mentioned (=it has been mentioned )
it's my mom who wakes me up (= it is my mom who wakes me up)
