Can I receive communion if I was baptised at age 32 in the Catholic church but did not make First holy communion?

If you haven't had the classes for it. Then you shouldn't do so. Also you should be going to cinfession before taking communion.

You need to go speak to the priest, have you been doing regular confession ( I will assume no also) It should not be a hard issue and as a Catholic taking part of the sacrament is important

I agree with the others no you cannot take communion until you are taking confirmation classes. Although this rules has become slightly lax in recent years.

Confirmation is after communion. Not before. It's a different sacrament. The important part is the classes and the confession. They would like you to understand what is going on with the eucharist and the acceptance of Christ.
