Solution
The correct option is C has been going
Option C is correct. The present perfect progressive tense is usually written as: has/have + been + present participle [base verb + -ing]. The present participle of "go" is "going". Since the sentence is in third person singular, the present perfect continuous tense will be has been going.
Option A is incorrect as it in past perfect continuous.
Option B is incorrect as it is in present continuous.
Option D is incorrect. "Have" can be used only when the sentence is in first person, second person, or third person plural. The given sentence is in third person singular.
