Florida Retirement System and new state of Michigan Residency

I have two situations that I need help with:   1) I am a member of the Florida Retirement System (FRS).  I retired in August of 2018; and 2) I moved to Michigan as a full-time resident. 

 

1) I originally became a member of the FRS in the late 1990's but did not become vested.  I rejoined the FRS in 2009 when I became employed with the State University System of Florida, became vested in 2011 and retired in August 2018.  I know that I originally did not contribute anything to the FRS however eventually the state of Florida mandated us to contribute 3%.  I began receiving a pension check in September 2018. 

 

I have entered the information from the 1099-R that I received from FRS into my Turbo Tax Home & Business program. Turbo Tax is now asking me to enter information regarding the "FRS annuity system."  Do I need to research more background info through FRS?

 

2) Will I need to file a state of MIchigan income tax form even though my income was earned in Florida?

 

Thank you.
