Is it correct "Once you have finished"

[cherran]

What tense should we use "Once" in a sentence

eg:
Once you have finished it please let know or Once you finish it let me know.

Once you have got there call me or Once you get there call me.

The bold part is the one I'm confused about.
Which one is correct?

Once you have [STRIKE] got there [/STRIKE] arrived call me or Once you get there call me. Either with correction.

Thank you for your reply.

Is there any difference between the two?

I agree with bill about the first, though there should be a 'me' after 'let'.
I don't agree about the second. I think 'Once you've got there' is fine.

Sorry about the "let", but with "the second", I think it's another BrE/AmE thing.

Oops! I didn't notice in your post that you used the contraction, "you've" whereas the original post did not. It's possible with the contraction in AmE, but "once you get there" would be more common.
