Dear S..S

I hope this can clarify the idea and answer your question

Your question is about alternative contractions
The two negative forms of be ( e.g. he isn't and he's not ) are both common in British English . American English prefers the forms with not ( e.g. he's not ). With other verbs , forms with n't ( e.g. she hadn't ) are more commonin most cases in standard southern British English; they are the only formsnormally used in AmE.( forms with not - e.g. he's not tend to be more common in northen and Scottish English ) .i

So both are correct , depending on BrE , AmE

It's not the first time that this had happened
It isn't the first time that this had happened
