Yes, (presuming you had income and were required to file) and you will be forever...as the statute of limitations doesn't start to run until a return is filed. Of course, if you had income from employment, and hence, withholding, or made so little you quailified for credits or benefits, you probably had money coming back and just screwed yourself anyway.
