“TO HAVE” VERBS IN TAG QUESTIONS

When “has, have, had” are used before another verb, they form the tag:
He has left. Hasn’t he?
They haven’t eaten. Have they?

When “has, have, had” are preceded by another auxiliary verb, that auxiliary verb forms the tag:
He doesn’t have money. Does he?
They can’t have it now. Can they?

When “has, have, had” are used alone, “does, do, did” form the tag:
He has money. Doesn’t he?
They have it all. Don’t they?
They had an issue. Didn’t they?
