In this particular type of sentence, you may hear any of these:
It is twenty years since I last saw her.
It has been twenty years since I last saw her.
I haven't seen her for twenty years.
It is twenty years since I have seen her.
It has been twenty years since I have seen her.
They all have essentially the same meaning. I don't think I would say the last two, but there is no doubt in my mind that I have heard them.
