Please, my sound colleagues. Are both of these statements not correct? 1. If you are through with your work, bring it. 2. If you have through with your work, bring it.

Only the first one is correct and the second is wrong.

Surely, the use of 'you' in the format of the two question agrees with the law of concord.
'you' is a word that goes with a plural verb.
You are ---> Correct
You Have--->Correct

Back to the question:
question one (ques 1) is the only sentence correct;
Why?
It shows the state of an action, An action surely took place there!
An action of ability

question 2:
This question is wrong,because the use of 'have' shows possession.

This analysis is sudjected to correction !
