i found the answer:

Download SDK from here https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/details.aspx?id=36824

install and look Can't install Lync 2013 SDK with Skype for Business 2016

A simple solution is to extract the .exe installer with 7-zip or some other program. After you unzip it, just run the corresponding .msi installers.

go to folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office 2013\LyncSDK\Assemblies\Desktop

find "Microsoft.Lync.Model.dll" add "Microsoft.Lync.Model.dll" to project as reference.

if you want to check your status :https://blog.thoughtstuff.co.uk/2014/08/microsoft-lync-desktop-development-how-to-get-started/

var theClient = LyncClient.GetClient();
Contact self = theClient.Self.Contact;
object obj = self.GetContactInformation(ContactInformationType.Availability);
string stringval=self.GetContactInformation(ContactInformationType.Availability).ToString();

if you want to check other person's status via e-mail

 Contact contact = theClient.ContactManager.GetContactByUri("xx@example.com");
 object zzz = contact.GetContactInformation(ContactInformationType.Availability);

These are the stringval values= https://rcosic.wordpress.com/2011/11/17/availability-presence-in-lync-client/

Invalid (-1),
None (0) – Do not use this enumerator. This flag indicates that the cotact state is unspecified.,
Free (3500) – A flag indicating that the contact is available,

DoNotDisturb (9500) – A flag indicating that the contact does not want to be disturbed,
TemporarilyAway (12500) – A flag indicating that the contact is temporarily away,
Away (15500) – A flag indicating that the contact is away,

    {

        private readonly Timer _timer;
        public DoThis()
        {
            _timer = new Timer(1000 * 2) { AutoReset = true };
            _timer.Elapsed += TimerElapsed;
        }
        private void TimerElapsed(object sender, ElapsedEventArgs e)
        {
            DoThis2();
        }
        public void Start()
        {
            _timer.Start();
        }
        public void Stop()

            Stop();

            var theClient = LyncClient.GetClient();
            Contact self = theClient.Self.Contact;


            if ((self.GetContactInformation(ContactInformationType.Availability)).ToString() == "6500")
            {
                Console.WriteLine("busy");
            }
            if ((self.GetContactInformation(ContactInformationType.Availability)).ToString() == "3500")
            {
                Console.WriteLine("available");
            }
            if ((self.GetContactInformation(ContactInformationType.Availability)).ToString() == "15500")
            {
                Console.WriteLine("away");
