Owing to the heterogeneity of languages and the diverse phenomena that may be presented due to their constant mutability, this qualitative-quantitative research proposes to investigate a dependent variable that has been gaining ground in sociolinguistic studies in Spanish: the occurrence of the agreed use of the impersonal verb haber, in this case, more specifically, in speakers of Santiago de Chile. Therefore, we intend to describe and analyze the independent variables that influence the choice between the variants (singular and plural) of this phenomenon. In order to reach that, we will base ourselves on the assumptions of the Theory of Language Variation and Change, since from it is possible to perform a complex analysis of the functioning of the languages, considering them within their real context of use by the speakers, regarding both linguistic and extralinguistic factors. Thus, this research is based on the foundations of the Sociolinguistics theory, especially in authors like Weinreich, Labov and Herzog, 2006 and Tagliamonte, 2006. Besides being anchored in previous studies on this topic, carried out by Hispanic authors, such as Ruiz (2004) from Venezuela, Rivas and Brown (2012) from Puerto Rico and De Mello (1991) about eleven capitals of Spanish-speaking countries. For the conformation of the corpus to be analyzed, there were used 72 sociolinguistic interviews belonging to the corpus PRESEEA (Project for the Sociolinguistic Study of the Spanish of Spain and America). The linguistic conditioners taken into consideration are a) the verbal tenses, b) the position of the nominal syntagma and, c) the nominal form of the verb; and the extralinguistic conditioners: a) gender, b) age, and c) socioeconomic level. The obtained results point out to a trend of variation in more advanced age groups, namely, the age groups 2 (35 to 42 years old) and 3 (55 years old and above) are those ones that mostly use the plural rather than the normative variant. In addition, it is observed the predominance of the pluralized use in low socioeconomic level, when the verb is conjugated in the Imperfect Past, Present Perfect Continuous and Future, and when the nominal syntagma comes before the verb. That way, we can observe a tendency to a variation in the analyzed interviews.
