Filing late tax return - tax years 2021-2022

My 35 year old divorced son has been unemployed for probably the past 30-36 months. He has had personal issues due to the divorce and loss of contact with his children. He has not filed return for the past 2 years at least and has been incarcerated for the past 90 days but is currently released to us on a ancle bracelet. I was wondering if there was any way to file for tax years 2021 and 2022 and get some of the covid related rebates or would his filing those returns get him in more trouble? We live in New Mexico.
