For your federal return, if you are amending prior year returns that have already been filed, then there would not be a penalty for filing late. There would be interest due on any balance that you owe -- which would be calculated starting with the due date for that particular year's return. If you end up owing a substantial amount for any given year, there may be an underpayment penalty that is due.
If you are filing a return for any given year for the first time and the due date has passed, there would be a late-filing penalty due if you owed taxes for that year.
