After the recent amendment in corruption prevention Act in 2015 since the punishment is increased upto 3 years minimum and 7 years maximum so crpc section 468 applies and according to that you can file Complaint or approach for FIR with three years generally previously it was 3 months . so Maximum is 7 years now.
