Individual citizens do not, and can not, "file charges!"The most one can do is MAKE A REPORT of the offense to the police and the police will take it from there.
If you have relevant knowledge or evidence to support who you suspect did it, you can inform the police at the time you make the report.

No B&E is a property crime - it MIGHT turn into a violent crime if you encounter someone inside though.
Other possible charges could include B & E (breaking and entering), destruction of property, vandalism.
It is usually called burglary- breaking and entering with the intent to commit a crime at that place- and yes, it Is a felony.
By "entering by breaking, or entering without breaking, the residence, business, premises, or property of another with the intent to commit a crime therein or thereon."
In New York State burglary, the crime of entering a building with intent to commit a crime therein, is a felony.

It will depend on the crime that has been committed if a person can press charges 3 years after the crime. If is a different crime, it will depend on the statute of limitations. However, a person cannnot be charged for a crime twice. That's considered double jeopardy.
A crime is a crime and remains a crime - there is no statutory limit on how long a time may go by before it is reported.. Obviously the best thing to do is report as soon as possible.
In my opinion I'd say bout half a year because people would not understand why or what made you do it . also people would be curios because if you haven't done that before why would you want to do a crime when you can't do the time.
