Due date of Zakah payment and annuality of Zakah : unable to Pay Zakah on inherited jewelry

Fatawa Question

Assalamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh, Is Zakah due for a girl who has inherited sufficient amount of jewelry from mother but has no means to pay the Zakah given that my whole family is under massive debt. I am single and dependant upon my father. also Zakah was not paid for several years due to poor financial situation of the family so can I just pay if its due for just one year or all the years Zakah was not paid on my jewelry as my father used to pay Zakah on my jewelry on my behalf before the financial problem arose a couple of years ago. Jazakum Allahu Khairan for your constant help
