State tax filing
Florida has no state income tax so there is nothing for you to do regarding FL. You say you are a student. If you are still being claimed as a dependent by your parents in GA, then you should be filing a GA return, and of course should file a federal return.
Can you be claimed as a dependent? If so, then on your own tax return you must say that someone else can claim you.
You might still be a qualifying child or a qualifying relative:
Here are the rules for your parents:
WHO CAN I CLAIM AS A DEPENDENT?
