1. I lived in Ireland for 20 years.
2. I have lived in Brazil for 17 years.

1. This statement is in the simple past which implies that the action is finished,
so…
I don’t live in Ireland now.
2. This statement is in the present perfect which implies that the action is still true, so…
I STILL live in Brazil.
