Can I file taxes for all 3 years

[Mike9241]

if you have no income there is no purpose in filing a return. however, if you were covered by Obamacare/Affordable Cre Act for which you received form 1095-A you must file.

What are you hoping to accomplish?   What are you wanting to enter on a tax return?   Did someone else claim you as a dependent?   How have you been supported for those three years?

If you want to file or need to then each year is separate.

Sorry it's too late to start a 2022 or prior online return or use the mobile app, either on Turbo Tax or the IRS. And too late to efile 2022.

If you need to start 2022 or 2021 or 2020 you can buy the Desktop download here

You will need a full Windows or Mac to install it on.

If you have a simple return and want to file for free you can fill out the forms by hand. Here are some basic forms.....

Here is the 2022 1040 return

or if you want bigger type use 1040SR for Seniors,

2022 1040 Instructions

2022 EIC and Tax Tables

Schedules 1-

Don’t forget your state. And you will have to print and mail your returns. So be sure to attach copies of your W2s and any 1099s that have withholding on them. You have to mail federal and state in separate envelopes because they go to different places. Get a tracking number from the post office when you mail them for proof of filing.

Then when you file for 2023 you need to enter 0 for the 2022 AGI since you are filing 2022 late.

I have links to other years forms too.
