Would Have Correct Grammar?

The Right Way to Spell Would of, Should of, and Could of
So would of is would have, could of is could have, should of is should have, will of is will have, and might of is might have: I would of come earlier, but I got stuck at work. He would have stayed if he'd known you were coming. You should of called yesterday.

Is it correct to say if I would have?

The correct way to say this is with the past perfect in the “if” clause, and the conditional perfect in the “then” clause: Correct: If I had known that you were going to the movies, [then] I would have gone too. ... Incorrect: If I would have known that you were going to the movies, I would have gone too.

Can we use would have?

2: Because 'would' (and will) can also be used to show if you want to do something or not (volition), we can also use would have + past participle to talk about something you wanted to do but didn't. This is very similar to the third conditional, but we don't need an 'if clause'.
